Summary

0007931: Observation of SUT

Description

In case of locally ordered Test Descriptions, where the synchronization between components is not implied, certain behaviours and validations, such as variable assignment and time constraints, can only occur locally within components.
In common realizations of test environments, the behaviours are implemented only for tester components and SUT component behaviours are expected to be carried out by SUTs (black-box testing). However, it is possible to construct a test environment where SUT behaviour (as described by Test Descriptions) is carried out via simulation or adaptation layer attached to SUT and local behaviours may be carried out and verified.
Currently, it is unclear whether describing SUT local behaviours/constraints in locally ordered Test Descriptions is generally allowed/recommended or not as different parts of the specification have taken opposing views on the matter. For the consistency of the standard, that unambiguity should be eliminated by describing the assumptions and aligning the requirements with those assumptions.
