TDL is a language that supp

28、orts the design and documentation of formal test descriptions that may be the basis for the implementation of executable tests in a given test framework, such as TTCN-3 i.1. Application areas of TDL that will benefit from this homogeneous approach to the test design phase include: Manual design of t

29、est descriptions from a test purpose specification, user stories in test driven development or other sources. Representation of test descriptions derived from other sources such as MBT test generation tools, system simulators, or test execution traces from test runs. TDL supports the design of black

30、-box tests for distributed, concurrent real-time systems. It is applicable to a wide range of tests including conformance tests, interoperability tests, tests of real-time properties and security tests based on attack traces. TDL clearly separates the specification of tests from their implementation

31、 by providing an abstraction level that lets users of TDL focus on the task of describing tests that cover the given test objectives rather than getting involved in implementing these tests to ensure their fault detection capabilities onto an execution framework. TDL is designed to support different

32、 abstraction levels of test specification. On one hand, the concrete syntax of the TDL meta-model may hide meta-model elements that are not needed for a declarative (more abstract) style of specifying test descriptions. For example, a declarative test description could work with the time operations

33、wait and quiescence instead of explicit timers and operations on timers (see clause 9). On the other hand, an imperative (less abstract or refined) style of a test description supported by a dedicated concrete syntax could provide additional means necessary to derive executable test descriptions fro

34、m declarative test descriptions. For example, an imperative test description could include timers and timer operations necessary to implement the reception of SUT output at a tester component and further details. It is expected that most details of a refined, imperative test description can be gener

35、ated automatically from a declarative test description. Supporting different levels of abstraction by a single TDL meta-model offers the possibility of working within a single language and using the same tools, simplifying the test development process that way. ETSI ETSI ES 203 119-1 V1.3.1 (2016-09

36、)12 4.2 Design Considerations TDL makes a clear distinction between concrete syntax that is adjustable to different application domains and a common abstract syntax, which a concrete syntax is mapped to (an example concrete syntax is provided in annex B). The definition of the abstract syntax for a

37、TDL specification plays the key role in offering interchangeability and unambiguous semantics of test descriptions. It is defined in the present document in terms of a MOF meta-model. A TDL specification consists of the following major parts that are also reflected in the meta-model: A test configur

38、ation consisting of at least one tester and at least one SUT component and connections among them reflecting the test environment. A set of test descriptions, each of them describing one test scenario based on interactions between the components of a given test configuration and actions of component

39、s or actors. The control flow of a test description is expressed in terms of sequential, alternative, parallel, iterative, etc. behaviour. A set of data definitions that are used in interactions and as parameters of test description invocations. Behavioural elements used in test descriptions that op

40、erate on time. Using these major ingredients, a TDL specification is abstract in the following sense: Interactions between tester and SUT components of a test configuration are considered to be atomic and not detailed further. For example, an interaction can represent a message exchange, a remote fu

41、nction/procedure call, or a shared variable access. All behavioural elements within a test description are totally ordered, unless it is specified otherwise. That is, there is an implicit synchronization mechanism assumed to exist between the components of a test configuration. The behaviour of a te

42、st description represents the expected, foreseen behaviour of a test scenario assuming an implicit test verdict mechanism, if it is not specified otherwise. If the specified behaviour of a test description is executed, the pass test verdict is assumed. Any deviation from this expected behaviour is c

43、onsidered to be a failure of the SUT, therefore the fail verdict is assumed. An explicit verdict assignment may be used if in a certain case there is a need to override the implicit verdict setting mechanism (e.g. to assign inconclusive or any user-defined verdict values). The data exchanged via int

44、eractions and used in parameters of test descriptions are represented as values of an abstract data type without further details of their underlying semantics, which is implementation-specific. There is no assumption about verdict arbitration, which is implementation-specific. If a deviation from th

45、e specified expected behaviour is detected, the subsequent behaviour becomes undefined. In this case an implementation might stop executing the TDL specification. A TDL specification represents a closed system of tester and SUT components. That is, each interaction of a test description refers to on

46、e source component and at least one target component that are part of the underlying test configuration a test description runs on. The actions of the actors (entities of the environment of the given test configuration) may be indicated in an informal way. Time in TDL is considered to be global and

47、progresses in discrete quantities of arbitrary granularity. Progress in time is expressed as a monotonically increasing function. Time starts with the execution of the first (base) test description being invoked. The elements in a TDL specification may be extended with tool, application, or framewor

48、k specific information by means of annotations. ETSI ETSI ES 203 119-1 V1.3.1 (2016-09)13 4.3 Principal Design Approach The language TDL is designed following the meta-modelling approach which separates the language design into abstract syntax and concrete syntax on the one hand, and static semantic

49、s and dynamic semantics on the other hand. The abstract syntax of a language describes the structure of an expression defined in the language by means of abstract concepts and relationships among them, where a concrete syntax describes concrete representation of an expression defined in this language by means of textual, graphical, or tabular constructs which are mapped to concepts from the abstract syntax. The semantics describes the meaning of the individual abstract syntax concepts. The realization of multiple re
