7. What Happens at an Interoperability Event

• Participants provide details on how to access their servers and clients

• Test suites and/or Test Matrices are used for testing

• Partner testing pairs are set up and each pair tests using the testing documents

• Participants document findings and deliver them to the Interoperability Testing Manager

• Impromptu meetings are held during the event to allow participants to have adhoc discussions

  • This is often the first time people who have been testing together informally meet for the first time

  • Face to face testing has proven to be invaluable to participants
