Conformance Testing (CT):
The testing of a candidate product for the existence of characteristics
required by a standard. Its primary activity is to ensure specified behavior of
implementations. Additional benefits include: clarifying the standard for guiding future
implementation, producing a feedback loop to the standards making bodies for improvements
to the standard, encouraging commercial development by supporting a baseline for
commonality in all products, and providing greater confidence on the part of the potential
enterprise user. Conformance-tested implementations increase the probability these same
implementations will be able to inter-operate, but provides no guarantee.
