  Abstract

In this paper, a testing architecture and procedure that an idle ATM virtual channel can be utilized for TCP channel is proposed. Four kinds of methodologies for protocol conformance testing have been standardized in ISO. Remote testing method used popularly have some disadvantages that developer must operate system manually in case of System Under Test(SUT) active testing and we cannot control and observe Implementation Under Test(IUT) often. It is proper to adopt distribute testing method than remote test in order to maximize test coverage and optimize fault coverage for conformance testing in ATM systems, and it is required that TCP channel is prepared for distribute testing method. The proposed architecture can adopt distributed testing method without extra physical channel for testing control. Also can maximize the test coverage and implement the automation of testing without intervention of operator sustaining normal operation of ATM equipment.
