3GPP and ETSI Card Test Suites

A unique solution to perform testing against the latest 3GPP and ETSI standards.

Test your UICC, eUICC, USIM or SIM under development by simulating a mobile phone or M2M device by controlling the simulation’s behavior. To be updated.

3GPP and ETSI Card Test Suites

Verify your SIM, UICC and eUICC against the core specifications.

3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) and European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) have written a range of test specifications in order to test SIM, UICC and eUICC against their core specifications. 3GPP and ETSI Test Suites are essential for anyone developing SIM, UICC and eUICCs against the latest standards.

Key benefits

  • Test in accordance with 3GPP and ETSI specifications.

  • Self-certify your product’s compliance with the core specifications.

  • Ensure a high level of interoperability.

  • Save time through fast analysis.

  • Execute user-friendly test suites.

Key features

  • Facilitates fault cause analysis for interoperability issues.

  • Provides comprehensive reports including insight to application logic.

  • Execute test cases from the 3GPP and ETSI test specifications for SIM, UICC and eUICC.

  • Allows sharing of exported test results with other interested parties using complimentary Mobile Log Viewer.

  • Compatible with Mobile Spy for fast debugging.

How it works.

By using the test suites to validate your implementation, you can perform self-certification testing. This approach minimizes the risk of implementation and interoperability issues, effectively reducing your time-to-market.

The 3GPP and ETSI Test Suites run on the free version of Mobile Card Test Platform which is a test engine that simulates a mobile phone, M2M / IoT device, or OTA platform as needed to perform the required testing. It generates logs and test reports and allows you to debug step by step through each test suite.
