Mission Critical (MC) services; Part 1: Common test environment
The present document defines the common test environment required for testing Client and Server implementations for compliance to the Mission Critical Services protocol requirements defined by 3GPP.
It contains definitions of reference conditions and test signals, default messages and other parameters, generic procedures, and, common requirements for test equipment with the goal for facilitating testing in general and test procedures specification in particular. Various parts of its content are referred to from other parts of the Mission Critical Services protocol conformance testing specification e.g. TS 37.579-2 [2], 3GPP TS 37.579-6 [84], 3GPP TS 37.579-7 [85].
The present document does not define the common test environment required for testing the implementation of the underlying RRC/NAS protocols, i.e. the bearers used for transport of the Mission Critical Services signalling and media. This is defined in TS 36.508 [6] and referred to from the present document whenever needed.
In regard to default messages or other information elements contents, the present document refers to content defined in requirements specifications specified by 3GPP or other organisations.
