Abstract

The objective of this study is to provide methods for derivingautomatically interoperability tests based on formal definitions. First,we give interoperability formal definitions taking into account both objectivesof interoperability: the implementations must interact correctlyand the expected service must be provided. Based on these definitions,a method for generating interoperability test cases is described. Thismethod is equivalent to classical methods in terms of noninteroperability detection and avoids state-space explosion problem. Classical and proposedmethods were implemented using the CADP Toolbox and appliedon a connection protocol to illustrate this contribution.
