SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003 is the Slovenian adoption of the Interim European Telecommunications Standard I-ETS 300 490-3 Edition 1. It specifies conformance testing for the EUROFILE file transfer profile (ETS 300 383) over the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN). The document is aimed at testers, laboratories, suppliers, and manufacturers that need to check Terminal Equipment (TE) against the EUROFILE profile in a controlled test setup.

What does SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003 specify?

SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003 specifies the Profile Specific Test Specification (PSTS) for the EUROFILE profile. Part 3 is the structuring document of the profile testing standard and works with the Profile Test Specification Summary (PTS-Summary) and the profile Implementation Conformance Statement (ICS) proforma.

The scope is conformance testing for ETS 300 383, not the definition of the EUROFILE service itself. In practice, this means the document tells a test lab how to set up, select, and report tests for an Implementation Under Test (IUT) or System Under Test (SUT).

The document is organized into clauses on scope, references, definitions, the abstract test method, test requirements, the profile-specific test specification, test purposes, naming and implementation conventions, and four annexes.

AnnexWhat it covers
Annex AThe Abstract Test Suite (ATS) in TTCN graphical and machine-processable form
Annex BThe normative profile-specific IXIT proforma for EUROFILE
Annex CThe Profile Conformance Test Report (PCTR) proforma
Annex DThe System Conformance Test Report (SCTR) proforma

What are the key requirements of SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003?

SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003 is a test specification, so its key requirements are about how conformance testing shall be carried out. The most important points are the test method, what is observed, what must be prepared before testing, and which lower-layer and profile-specific cases are used.

The test method is remote and multi-layer

Clause 5 states that the Remote multi layer test method shall be used. The test system controls and observes the IUT through defined Points of Control and Observation (PCOs), rather than by inspecting the human interface directly.

This matters because the test focuses on protocol behavior and exchanged messages. The tester checks protocol data units (PDUs) and parameters at the PCOs, not the detailed screen or keypad behavior.

Only protocol behavior is observed

Clause 6.1 says the specification does not deal with the details of the human interface. It also says that the tester shall observe the order of transmission of parameters within a PDU, while the test equipment shall accept parameters in different order.

In practice, a product can be conformant even if parameter order varies, as long as the protocol behavior remains correct. This is important for interoperability between different implementations.

The lower layers must already be correct

Clause 6.2 says the low-layer requirements of ETS 300 383 apply without extra application rules, and clause 6.3 says the end-to-end protocol of ETS 300 383 applies without additional rules.

This means the EUROFILE profile test assumes the underlying ISDN layers are already valid. The tester should verify the relevant lower layers first using the referenced conformance specifications, otherwise the EUROFILE results may not be meaningful.

The IUT must be prepared before testing

Clause 6.4 requires the tester to configure the IUT before the test starts. The test files, the access control list, and the Correspondent phone book shall be prepared.

That preparation matters because many test cases depend on known file names, access rights, and correspondent entries. If these items are not configured correctly, the test cannot reproduce the required call and file-transfer scenarios.

EUROFILE uses transparent SBV mode

Clause 7.3 says EUROFILE shall use the transparent mode, with no transport layer, and shall comply with ETS 300 079. It also identifies the SBV Transfer Data Units used for this mode: SBV_TPD_Begin, SBV_TPD_End, and SBV_TC_Error.

In practice, this defines the end-to-end exchange that the test cases exercise. The same clause also points to selected Syntax-Based Videotex (SBV) test cases from I-ETS 300 236 for begin, end, positive and negative responses, timeout behavior, and error handling.

The profile reuses test cases from other conformance specs

Clause 7.2 maps many applicable test purposes from I-ETS 300 491-3, and clause 8.2 maps replacement test purposes from ETS 300 075. The profile is therefore tested through a combination of inherited cases, adapted cases, and EUROFILE-specific cases.

This matters because a buyer or lab should expect the test campaign to cover capability, valid behavior, invalid behavior, inopportune behavior, and service behavior for both Master and Slave operation.

Local services and combined purposes are handled explicitly

Clause 8.3.3 includes local services for Configuration, Phonebook, File List, Logbook, and Information Supplied. Clause 8.4 defines Combined Test Purposes (CTP), where several test purposes are merged because they use the same sequence.

This reduces duplicated testing and ties the protocol checks to user-visible outcomes such as logbook entries, displayed file information, and user abort indications.

What terms does SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003 define?

Implementation Under Test (IUT) - the equipment whose EUROFILE conformance is being tested.

System Under Test (SUT) - the complete system that contains the IUT and any supporting functions needed for testing.

Point of Control and Observation (PCO) - the place where the test system sends stimuli and observes protocol behavior.

Abstract Test Suite (ATS) - the formal test suite defined for this specification; Annex A gives it in TTCN form.

Profile Specific Test Specification (PSTS) - the part of the conformance test specification that defines how the EUROFILE profile is tested.

Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (IXIT) - the profile-specific test information that must be prepared before testing, such as addresses, files, and procedural data.

Tree and Tabular Combined Notation (TTCN) - the notation used to express the ATS in graphical and machine-processable form.

Syntax-Based Videotex (SBV) - the end-to-end protocol family used by this profile in transparent mode.

Who uses SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003?

SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003 is used by conformance test laboratories, equipment suppliers, manufacturers of Terminal Equipment, and customers who need test evidence for procurement or approval.

It is especially relevant for teams working with ISDN telematic terminals and file transfer implementations. Quality managers and test engineers use it to plan the test campaign, prepare the IXIT items, select the applicable test purposes, and record the results in the PCTR or SCTR forms.

What changed in SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003 from the previous edition?

SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003 corresponds to I-ETS 300 490-3 Edition 1.

Which standards are used with SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003?

The specification relies on several referenced standards and companion parts:

  • ETS 300 383 - the EUROFILE transfer profile that this test specification verifies.
  • I-ETS 300 490-1 - the profile ICS proforma used to state the implementation capabilities to be tested.
  • I-ETS 300 490-2 - the PTS-Summary that structures the EUROFILE test coverage.
  • ETS 300 075 - the base file-transfer specification from which some test purposes are adapted.
  • I-ETS 300 491-3 and I-ETS 300 491-2 - related conformance test suite documents that provide applicable and replacement test purposes.
  • ETS 300 079 and ETS 300 080 - the SBV end-to-end and lower-layer telematic protocol references used in the transparent mode setup.
  • ETS 300 012, ETS 300 011, ETS 300 125, and ETS 300 102-1 - the ISDN layer 1, layer 2, and basic call control references.
  • ETS 300 406 - the testing methodology reference used for protocol and profile conformance testing.
  • ISO/IEC 9646-3 and ISO/IEC 9646-5 - the conformance testing framework for TTCN and for laboratory and client requirements.
  • ITU-T Recommendation T.51 - the coded character set reference for telematic services.

What does the SIST I-ETS 300 490-3 E1:2003 document contain?

The document contains the Abstract Test Method, the test requirements, the profile-specific test purpose mappings, the naming conventions, and the implementation conventions. It also contains the ATS in both TTCN.GR and TTCN.MP form, so a lab can use the same test logic in graphical or machine-processable form.

Annex B provides the IXIT proforma, including identification data, profile information, IUT information, addresses, parameter values, test files, navigation filestore details, access control list identifiers, and procedural information. Annexes C and D provide report proformas for profile-level and system-level conformance testing, including identification, status summaries, test campaign results, and observations.

The body of the document also includes the mapping of replacement test purposes, the selected SBV test cases, and the combined test purposes used to tie protocol checks to visible user outcomes such as file lists, messages, logbook entries, and call interruption handling.

Foreword
Part 3 of this Interim European Telecommunication Standard (I-ETS) has been produced by the Terminal
Equipment (TE) Technical Committee 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 it's life extended for a further
two years, be replaced by a new version, or be withdrawn.
This is the third part of an I-ETS which comprises three parts as follows:
"Terminal Equipment (TE); File transfer over the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN);
Conformance testing specification:
Part 1: Profile Implementation Conformance Statement (ICS) proforma for the EUROFILE profile
ETS 300 383);
Part 2: Profile Test Specification Summary (PTS-Summary) for the EUROFILE profile
(ETS 300 383);
Part 3: Profile Specific Test Specification (PSTS) for the EUROFILE profile (ETS 300 383).
Proposed announcement date
Date of adoption of this I-ETS: 30 August 1996
Date of latest announcement of this I-ETS (doa): 31 December 1996

4 General
This part of the I-ETS describes all the aspects of testing.
The Abstract Test Suite (ATS) is specified in annex A.
NOTE: The ATS is written in Tree and Tabular Combined Notation (TTCN) and follows the
rules of ISO/IEC 9646-3 [17]. The ATS exists in machine processable form
(DIP04903.MP) and is the property of ETSI.
Additional Selected Test Cases of other Conformance test specifications are described in clause 7.
5 Abstract Test Method
This clause describes the Abstract Test Method (ATM), the Points of Control and Observation (PCO) used
to test the simple file transfer over the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN).
The Remote multi layer test method shall be used.

LT A Lower Tester (LT) is located in the test system. It controls and observes the
behaviours of the Implementation Under Test (IUT).
PCO1 The PCO one is defined between T-Service user and T-Service provider
(see ETS 300 075 [13], page 18, "Case of Syntax-Based Videotex:"). PCO1 is
the main PCO in the ATS.
PCO2 The PCO two is defined below the syntax-Based Videotex layer. It serves only
for specific Test Cases to observe the behaviour of used Syntax-Based
Videotex (see ETS 300 075 [13], subclause 6.5). PCO2 serves only for specific
Test Cases and does not serve to observe all Test Cases. The reason for
PCO2, is that if the IUT sends a T_Abort or a T_Release then the reaction on
PCO1 cannot be observed.
Service Provider The Service Provider consists partly of Syntax based Videotex End-to-End
protocols DTE-DTE (ETS 300 079 [10]) and Lower layer protocols for telematic
terminals (ETS 300 080 [8]).
IUT ETS 300 075 [13] restricted to EUROFILE profile is the IUT. It belongs to the
System Under Test (SUT).
UT No explicit Upper Tester (UT) exists in the test system. However, the SUT
needs to carry out some IUT actions by the user interface to achieve some
effects of test co-ordination procedures. The controls of the IUT are implied or
informally expressed in the ATS, but no assumption shall be made regarding
their feasibility or realisation.
NOTE: This ATM cannot be used for the testing of local services. In order to test local services this test
specification describes the test in the ATS with text, and the tester shall realize those local
service tests by the specific procedure described in annex B.

6 Test requirements
6.1 General requirements
For this conformance test specification all the requirements to carry out the tests are given.
To realize this conformance test specification it is necessary that all the layers below work properly. For
this reason, lower layers shall be checked before this specification by relevant conformance test
specifications, see clause 7.
This test specification does not deal with the details of the human interface. Only Protocol Data Units
(PDUs) and Parameters are observed and controlled at the PCOs.
The tester shall observe the order of transmission of parameters within a PDU. At present, a fixed order of
transmission of parameters is not required by the I-ETS. Consequently, the test equipment shall realize
the receiving of parameters in different order.
6.2 Low layer requirements
Clause 10 of ETS 300 383 [1] shall apply without any additional application rules.
Additional requirements or references to referenced documents are given in the following subclauses.
6.2.1 Layer 1 protocols
For terminals using basic access to an ISDN, ETS 300 012 [4] shall apply without any additional
application rules.
For terminals using the primary rate access to an ISDN, ETS 300 011 [5] shall apply without any additional
application rules.
6.2.2 Layer 2 protocols, D-channel layer
ETS 300 125 [6] shall apply without any additional rules.
6.2.3 Layer 3 protocols D-channel layer
Additional requirements and amendments are given in the following subclauses.
6.2.3.1 Terminal selection and compatibility checking
Subclause 10.2.2 of ETS 300 383 [1] describes the use of the "Eurofile" Higher Layer Compatibility (HLC)
codepoint . This codepoint is not available and is thus not relevant for testing.
6.2.3.2 Service specific use of supplementary services
No supplementary service tests are contained in this I-ETS.
6.2.4 Information transfer attributes
The information transfer attributes of this teleservice are specified in table 1.

6.3 End-to-end protocol
Clause 9 in ETS 300 383 [1] shall apply without any additional rules.
6.4 IUT test suite specific requirements
Before the test specification is started the tester shall configure the IUT (SUT). The test files, the access
control list and the Correspondent phonebook shall be prepared.
6.4.1 Test file
This ATS gives a fixed order of directories and files. The tester shall activate transactions for certain Test
Cases at the IUT user interface. For this reason, the tester shall realize the following designations of files
in the IUT in the directory 'eurotest' as follows:
- File type group A (default):
a) tstde_2, tstlo_1, tstre_n1, tstre_o1, tstre_o2, tstre_3, tstsa_2.
The content of the files is defined in Annex A, in the TTCN description.
6.4.2 Access control list
For the carrying out of tests, the tester shall prepare the access control list as follows:
Services: Restrictions to services shall not be allowed.
Identifier: Name: TESTEURO and Password: testrun shall be granted, i.e. the following
identifier: "TESTEURO/testrun".
Working area: EUROTEST.
NOTE: Additional rules for identifiers are given in annex B, subclause B.2.3.5.

Page 17
I-ETS 300 490-3: September 1996
6.4.3 Correspondent phone book
For carrying out the tests, the tester shall prepare the Corresponding phone book as follows:
Services: Restrictions to services shall not be allowed.
Called address: TSPX_CALLED_ADDRESS, see annex B, subclause B.2.3.2.
Local working filestore: EUROTEST.
7 Profile Specific Test Specification (PSTS)
7.1 Additional selected Test Cases of other conformance test specifications
Before carrying out the tests the correct implementation of the lower layers shall be checked and other
Protocol Conformance Test Report (PCTR) should be used.

7.3 Relevant Syntax-Based Videotex end-to-end protocol DTE-DTE Test Cases
This test specification is based on Syntax-Based Videotex (SBV) end-to-end protocol DTE-DTE.
EUROFILE shall use the transparent mode (with no transport layer) and shall comply with
ETS 300 079 [10].
The ETS 300 079 [10] TDUs to implement the transparent mode are:
- SBV_TPD_Begin;
- SBV_TPD_End;
- SBV_TC_Error.
For further details see ETS 300 383 [1], clause 9.
Additional Test Cases that shall be tested are included in I-ETS 300 236 [11], see table 4 below. The
referenced tables in the Test Case Name column are referencing out to I-ETS 300 23
...
