TDL Reference Implementation (Phase 3) (STF 492)

TC MTS laid the foundation of the Test Description Language (TDL) with STF 454 in 2013 in terms of the basic concepts and their semantics. STF 476 built upon the work of STF 454, by adding the necessary language functionality to integrate TDL test descriptions into test automation frameworks and elaborating a standardised concrete graphical syntax for end-users and a TDL exchange format to be used by tools to foster tool interoperability. STF 476 also delivered an extension to TDL to enable refined structured test objective specification. STF 492 is continuing the efforts on TDL at ETSI by developing an open reference implementation as a common platform to accelerate the adoption of TDL and lower the barrier to entry for both end users and tool vendors.
