Foreword
This Interim European Telecommunication Standard (I-ETS) has been produced by the Terminal
Equipment (TE) Technical Committee and approved by Multimedia Terminals and Applications (MTA)
Project of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
An ETSI standard may be given I-ETS status either because it is regarded as a provisional solution ahead
of a more advanced standard, or because it is immature and requires a "trial period". The life of an I-ETS
is limited to three years after which it can be converted into an ETS, have its life extended for a further two
years, be replaced by a new version, or be withdrawn.
This I-ETS is part 1 of a multipart standard covering "Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN);
audiovisual services in-band signalling testing", as described below:
Part 1: "Test Suite Structure and Test Purpose (TSS & TP) specification";
Part 2: "Abstract Test Suite (ATS) and partial Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing
(PIXIT) proforma ";
Part 3: "Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma specification".
Proposed announcement date
Date of adoption: 24 October 1997
Date of latest announcement of this I-ETS (doa): 28 February 1998

1 Scope
This Interim European Telecommunication Standard (I-ETS) is part 1 of a three part I-ETS dealing with
conformance testing of Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Videotelephony terminals. Part 2
contains the Abstract Test Suite (ATS) in Tree and Tabular Combined Notation (TTCN) and the partial
Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (PIXIT) proforma. Part 3 provides the Protocol
Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma specification.
This I-ETS contains the Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes (TSS & TP) for conformance testing the
in-band signalling aspects of an ISDN Videotelephony terminal which uses one or two B channels, and
which implements the frame structure and associated syntax as specified in ETS 300 144 [2] and the in-
band signalling procedures as specified in ETS 300 143 [1]. No testing of data commands or applications
is included among the tests. Test Purposes (TPs) for signal content of the B-channel are included in this
part of the I-ETS but no corresponding test cases have been included in part 2. Restricted network
operation is outside the scope of this I-ETS.
It may be possible to use these TPs in order to test a non-ISDN Videotelephony terminal, as long as it
provides one or two 64 kbit/s digital channels for transmission. It may also be possible to use the majority
of these TPs to test in-band signalling implementations according to ETS 300 143 [1] and ETS 300 144 [2]
using single or multiple channels up to 1 920 kbit/s.
2 Normative references
This I-ETS incorporates by dated and undated reference, provisions from other publications. These
normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed

latest edition of the publication referred to applies.

3 Definitions
For the purposes of this I-ETS, all the definitions in ISO/IEC 9646 [4] apply, as well as the following:
additional channel: The second or subsequent channels established in a videophone call.
bit-rate allocation signal: Bit position within the frame structure to transmit commands, control and
indication signals, capabilities.
capability marker; cap marker: The first code in a capability set.
capability set; cap set: A sequence of capability codes started by the capability marker code.
ECS channel: Optional 800 kbit/s channel for use in encryption.
initial channel: The first channel established in a videophone call.
mode 0F: Transmission mode in which the initial channel contains framing, and 7-bit CCITT
Recommendation G.711 [5] audio signal is being transmitted.
mode 0U: Transmission mode in which the initial channel does not contain framing, and 8-bit CCITT
Recommendation G.711 [5] audio is being transmitted.
remote terminal: The terminal with which the IUT is communicating, i.e. the test tool.

5 Naming convention and document structure
This I-ETS is structured into 9 clauses. Clauses 1 to 3 deal with the scope, references and abbreviations.
Clause 4 onwards forms the main body. Clause 5 contains the Test Suite Structure (TSS). Clauses 6 and
7 contain the complete list of TPs which apply to the in-band signalling specifications referenced above:
clause 6 applying to 1B communication and clause 7 applying to 2B communication. Clauses 8 and 9 also
refer to 1B and 2B respectively, but contain the list of combined TPs.
In this I-ETS, TPs are referenced with TP, Combined Test Purposes are referenced with CTP. Super Test
Purposes are referenced with SP, with corresponding derived Test Purposes having D appended to the
reference. SPs are only used if they provide clarification of an obscure TP.
Each TP contained in clauses 6 and 7 also appears in clauses 8 and 9 respectively. Clauses 8 and 9
contain combined TPs, i.e. TPs which can be tested together in one test case. Each combined TP
contains references to the original, uncombined TPs contained within it, from clauses 6 and 7. Any TPs
which cannot be combined with others have been copied from clauses 6 and 7 into clauses 8 and 9
respectively, with unchanged references. Therefore, clauses 8 and 9 contain the complete set of TPs, and
there is a one to one mapping between these TPs and the corresponding test cases in the ATS in part 2
of this I-ETS.
TPs which do not have abstract test cases written for them are listed in italics. The usual reason for not
writing a test case lies in the fact that they are testing transmission or reception of audio or video signals
by the Implementation Under Test (IUT). The selected test method used in the abstract test suite does not
have a Point of Control and Observation (PCO) for sending and receiving audio or video signals. The
testing of audio or video signal content is outside the scope of testing in-band signalling content and to
specify a sample audio or vi
