Specifies requirements on both the test laboratory and the client, for the conduct of the conformance assessment process. The requirements are those necessary to achieve comparability of results of tests on similar implementations performed by different test laboratories. This Standard is identical with, and has been reproduced from, ISO/IEC 9646-5:1991.

Scope

This part of ISO/IEC 9646 specifies requirements on both the test laboratory and the client, for the conduct of the conformance assessment process. The requirements are those necessary to achieve comparability of results of tests on similar implementations performed by different test laboratories. This part of ISO/IEC 9646 also provides some guidance on the conformance assessment process.
The requirements include a) requirements for the testability of the implementation with respect to ATMs; b) general requirements on the test laboratory and the client applicable to any conformance testing process; c) exchange of technical and administrative information, including a System Conformance Statement (SCS), a Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) for each relevant OSI protocol standard, and Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (PIXIT) for each Abstract Test Suite (ATS) to be used for testing; d) cooperation between the test laboratory and the client to reach an agreement on the definition of the Implementation Under Test (IUT), on the ATMs and ATSs to be used and on the conditions under which testing will be performed; e) requirements for the structure and content of the conformance test reports that document the results of conformance assessment.
This part of ISO/IEC 9646 is applicable equally to those test laboratories which are affiliated to suppliers or procurers, and those which are independent.
This part of ISO/IEC 9646 is applicable to conformance assessment of implementations of OSI and ISDN two-party protocol standards that comply with the relevant requirements for testability in ISO/IEC 9646-2, based on conformance testing standards specified in compliance with ISO/IEC 9646-2, and using Means of Testing (MOT) in compliance with ISO/IEC 9646-4.
The following are outside the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 9646: a) the production of diagnostic trace information, additional to that in the conformance log, for the results of testing performed by the test laboratory, and its supply to the client; b) aspects of test laboratory operations which are not specific to testing implementations of OSI protocols; c) accreditation of test laboratories; d) certification of implementations of OSI protocols.
