Valid8's P25 ISSI CSSI Protocol Conformance Test Suites provide a convenient method to test the dispatch console and the RFSS on the ISSI and CSSI interfaces according to the TIA and CAP standards.

Overview

The Valid8 P25 ISSI CSSI Conformance Suites are suitable for testing compliance to standards for CAP, TIA, IETF in the P25 domain and includes an implementation of the P25 CAP ISSI/CSSI Conformance Test Tool (ICC Test Tool / ICCTT).

What It Can Do For You

Valid8 developed a commercial test tool to conduct compliance testing for P25 Inter subsystem interface (ISSI) and Console Subsystem Interface (CSSI). DHS S&T and Valid8 executed a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to enable this test tool to conduct the required P25 CAP ISSI/CSSI Conformance testing as defined in the P25 CAP Compliance Assessment Bulletins (CAB).

Automation API

User commands can be fully automated using an HTTP API. This includes all control functions as well as collection of results and metrics. It can be integrated into any CI system including Jenkins, CircleCI, Gitlab and others. Our Autom8 Python framework is included to ease integration.

Scripting

The application can be edited directly in the browser using VTDL using Composer, a powerful development environment that includes error checking and a graphical view easing the creation and modification of scenarios. Codec Studio can be used to quickly build message templates from raw PDUs, as captured by tcpdump for example, to use in the scenarios.
