I don't speak for the consortium but there have been numerous debates on this issue, either at the management level, and also inside the OCC technical committee. In fact, since V1.1.1 (May99), there is a test framework for OCF that is not part of the distribution itself but is of today available for the consortium members only. Details can be found in the public "Work-in-Progress" web page: <a href="/ml/openPage.cfm?urlX=http://www.opencard.org/work/." target='target445'>http://www.opencard.org/work/.</a> Have a look for example at RFC 7 (Framework for Test Execution) and RFC 8 (Card Terminal Compliance Test). They have both been voted "Accepted" and integrated into the OCF. In fact, the source code of RFC7 is currently protected by password but it should be made public I think, because RFCs specify additions to the framework, being it additions to its core, optional parts, or even tools (Especially if people outside the consortium want to contribute!). Uwe, is it possible to open the test framework implementation so that interested people could have a look. Now we still lack one or even several test suites to feed this framework. I also agree with Jon that a few simple tests should be enough to find common mistakes. Gemplus is willing to contribute on this issue with some tests we use for qualifying other drivers (these tests are not written in Java though, they have to be ported). All contributions will be welcome. Cheers, Christophe. = Pentium testing consisted mostly of playing tetris until a score = = of 100,000 was achieved.   ; = -- ------------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Gemplus Research Lab Phone: 33 4-42-36-57-83 ------------------------------------------------------------- --- > Visit the OpenCard web site at <a href="/ml/openPage.cfm?urlX=http://www.opencard.org/" target='target789'>http://www.opencard.org/</a> for more> information on OpenCard---binaries, source code, documents.> This list is being archived at <a href="/ml/openPage.cfm?urlX=http://www.opencard.org/archive/opencard/" target='target512'>http://www.opencard.org/archive/opencard/</a> !
