Intellectual Property Rights
IPRs essential or potentially essential to the present document may have been declared to ETSI. The information
pertaining to these essential IPRs, if any, is publicly available for ETSI members and non-members, and can be found
in ETSI SR 000 314: "Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs); Essential, or potentially Essential, IPRs notified to ETSI in
respect of ETSI standards", which is available from the ETSI Secretariat. Latest updates are available on the ETSI Web
server (https://ipr.etsi.org/).
Pursuant to the ETSI IPR Policy, no investigation, including IPR searches, has been carried out by ETSI. No guarantee
can be given as to the existence of other IPRs not referenced in ETSI SR 000 314 (or the updates on the ETSI Web
server) which are, or may be, or may become, essential to the present document.
Foreword
This Technical Specification (TS) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Electronic Signatures and
Infrastructures (ESI).
The present document is part 5 of a multi-part deliverable covering CAdES digital signatures - Testing Conformance
and Interoperability. Full details of the entire series can be found in part 1 [i.1].
A tool implementing the present document has been developed and is accessible at http://signatures-conformance-
checker.etsi.org/.
Modal verbs terminology
In the present document "shall", "shall not", "should", "should not", "may", "need not", "will", "will not", "can" and
"cannot" are to be interpreted as described in clause 3.2 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (Verbal forms for the expression of
provisions).
"must" and "must not" are NOT allowed in ETSI deliverables except when used in direct citation.

1 Scope
The present document defines the checks to be performed for testing conformance of CAdES signatures against
extended CAdES signatures as specified in ETSI EN 319 122-2 [2]. It defines only the checks that are specific to
extended CAdES signatures. The set of checks that are common to both extended and baseline CAdES signatures, are
defined in ETSI TS 119 124-4 [3].
The complete set of checks to be performed by any tool on CAdES extended signatures is the union of the sets defined
within the present document and the set of common checks for testing conformance against ETSI EN 319 122-1 [1] and
ETSI EN 319 122-2 [2] defined in ETSI TS 119 124-4 [3], as indicated in the normative clauses of the present
document.
The present document does not specify checks leading to conclude whether a signature is technically valid or not (for
instance, it does not specify checks for determining whether the cryptographic material present in the signature may be
considered valid or not). In consequence, no conclusion may be inferred regarding the technical validity of a signature
that has been successfully tested by any tool conformant to the present document.
Checks specified by the present document are exclusively constrained to elements specified by CAdES [1].
Regarding CAdES attributes, the present document explicitly differentiates between structural requirements that are
defined on building blocks, and the requirements specified for extended CAdES signatures conformance.
The present document is intentionally not linked to any software development technology and is also intentionally
agnostic on implementation strategies. This is one of the reasons why the test assertions set specified in the present
document includes tests on the correctness of the structure of all the elements specified by CAdES [1].

their long term validity.
