IEEE 1671.1-2009

The scope of this trial-use standard is the definition of an exchange format, utilizing eXtensible Markup Language (XML), for exchanging the test description information defining test performance, test conditions, diagnostic requirements, and support equipment to locate, align, and verify the proper operation of a UUT. This is in support of the development of test program sets (TPSs) that will be used in an automatic test environment.

The purpose of this trial-use standard is to promote and facilitate interoperability between components of Automatic Test Systems (ATSs) (e.g., rehosting test requirements between ATS platforms) where UUT requirement definitions need to be shared. This trial-use standard will also facilitate the preparation or documentation of test program(s). The TestDescription schema becomes a class of information that can be used within the ATML family of standards.

New IEEE Standard - Superseded. This document specifies an exchange format, using the extensible Markup Language (XML), for exchanging the test description information defining test performance, test conditions, diagnostic requirements, and support equipment to locate, align, and verify the proper operation of a Unit Under Test (UUT). This is in support of the development of Test Program Sets (TPSs) that will be used in an automatic test environment.
