Methods for Testing and Specification (MTS); The Test Description Language (TDL); Part 4: Structured Test Objective Specification ( Extension)

Scope

The present document specifies an extension of the Test Description Language (TDL) enabling the specification of
structured test objectives. The extension covers the necessary additional constructs in the abstract syntax, their
semantics, as well as the concrete graphical syntactic notation for the added constructs. In addition textual syntax
examples of the TDL Structured Test Objectives extensions as well as BNF rules for a textual syntax for TDL with the
Structured Test Objectives extensions are provided. The intended use of the present document is to serve both as a
foundation for TDL tools implementing support for the specification of structured test objectives, as well as a reference
for end users applying the standardized syntax for the specification of structured test objectives with TDL.
