Full Description

Scope

This standard defines the general requirements and test methods for measuring conformance to ISO/IEC 9945-1 1990 (IEEE Std 1003.1-1990 ) hereinafter referred to as "POSIX.1" {3}. It also defines the test assertions for measuring conformance to POSIX.1 {3}. This standard is intended for use by --Developers of POSIX.1 {3} test methods;--Implementors of POSIX.1 {3} implementations; --Application writers for POSIX.1 {3} conforming implementations; --POSIX.1 {3} testing laboratories; and --Otheres interested in validating the conformance of a vendor-claimed POSIX.1 {3} implementation

Purpose

The purpose of this standard is to specify the test assertions and related test methods for measuring conformance of an implementation to POSIX.1 {3}. Testing conformance of an implementation to a standard includes testing the claimed capabilities and behavior of the implementation with respect to the conformance requirements of the standard. These test methods are intended to provide a reasonable, practical assurance that the implementation conforms to the standard. Use of these test methods will not guarantee conformance of an implementation to POSIX.1 {3}; that normally would require exhaustive testing, which is impractical for both technical and economic reasons. The technical specifications for a POSIX System Application Program Interface are defined in POSIX.1 {3}. IEEE Std 2003.1-1992 defines a means of measuring conformance to the POSIX.1 {3} technical specifications. Any question of interpretation of those technical specifications arising from the use of this standard is a question of interpretation of POSIX.1 {3}.

Abstract

New IEEE Standard - Inactive-Withdrawn. IEEE Std 2003.1-1992 provides a definition of the requirements placed upon providers of POSIX test methods for POSIX.1 (IEEE Std 10031-1990; ISO/IEC 9945-1: 1990). These requirements consist of a POSIX.1-ordered list of assertions defining those aspects of POSIX.1. that are to be tested and the associated test methods that are to be used in performing those tests. This standard is aimed primarily at POSIX.1 test suite providers and POSIX.1 implementors. This standard specifies those aspects of POSIX.1 that shall be verified by conformance test methods.
