This International Standard specifies the framework, concepts and methodology for testing and criteria to be<\/p>\n
achieved to claim conformance to the family of ISO geographic information standards. It provides a framework for<\/p>\n
specifying abstract test suites (ATS) and for defining the procedures to be followed during conformance testing.<\/p>\n
Conformance may be claimed for data or software products or services or by specifications including any profile or<\/p>\n
functional standard.<\/p>\n
Standardization of test methods and criteria for conformance to geographic information standards will allow<\/p>\n
verification of conformance to those standards. Verifiable conformance is important to geographic information<\/p>\n
users, in order to achieve data transfer and sharing.<\/p>\n
This International Standard is applicable to all the phases of conformance and testing. These phases are<\/p>\n
characterized by the following major activities:<\/p>\n
a) the definition of ATS for conformance to the ISO geographic information standards;<\/p>\n
b) the definition of test methods for conformance to the ISO geographic information standards;<\/p>\n
c) the conformance assessment process carried out by a testing laboratory for a client, culminating in the<\/p>\n
production of a conformance test report.<\/p>\n
This International Standard specifies the requirements for, and gives guidance on, the procedures to be followed in<\/p>\n
conformance testing for the ISO geographic information standards. It includes only such information as is<\/p>\n
necessary to meet the following objectives:<\/p>\n
1) to achieve confidence in the tests as a measure of conformance;<\/p>\n
2) to achieve comparability between the results of corresponding tests applied in different places at different<\/p>\n
times;<\/p>\n
3) to facilitate communication between the parties responsible for the activities described in 1) and 2).<\/p>\n
This International Standard provides a framework for certification (an administrative procedure which may follow<\/p>\n
conformance testing) in informative annex B.<\/p>\n
The following topics are outside the scope of this International Standard.<\/p>\n
a) The description of requirements for procurement and contracts.<\/p>\n
b) Testing by means of test methods which are specific to particular applications or systems.<\/p>\n
c) Acceptance testing, performance testing and robustness testing.<\/p>\n
The framework established by this International Standard includes the concept of executable test suites (ETS).<\/p>\n
These, by their very nature, cannot be standardized; consequently, standardization of ETS is outside the scope of<\/p>\n
this International Standard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
