Test Suite Parameters


The test suite parameters are read at startup of the TTCN Exerciser. There are two locations where they are searched for:

In a pixit-file, the variables declared are to be named according to the following list of predefined type names. The names showed are typed with respect to case and spelling:

NULL	 INTEGER	 BOOLEAN
BITSTRING	 	 HEXSTRING	 	 OCTETSTRING
NumericString	 	 PrintableString	 	 TeletexString
T61String	 	 VideotexString	 	 VisibleString
ISO646String	 	 IA5String	 	 GraphicString
GeneralString	 	 RTYPE	 	 SEQUENCE
SEQUENCEOF	 	 SET	 	 SETOF
CHOICE	 	 ENUMERATED	 	 OBJECTIDENTIFIER
UTCTime	 	 GeneralizedTime	 	 ObjectDescriptor

The file format is defined as:

   File ::= {Line};
   Line ::= Comment | ParameterNameAndValue;
   Comment ::= <Non alpha Character> <Any text> | <empty line>;
   ParameterNameAndValue ::= ParameterName ISMValueEncoding;
   

The ISMValueEncoding is defined in a separate section. An example would be:

#
# This is my parameter file, named pixit.ttp, located in the
# working directory of the ETS with the TTCN Exerciser.
#

TspFoo	 	 3
TspUsePDU	 PDUA ( INTEGER 1, BOOLEAN TRUE )

# End of this example file.
