Abstract
This paper presents an experiment in using TTCN-3 for developing conformance test suite for the RIPng protocol. Main issues that any new TTCN-3 user may deal with are highlighted. Some methodological constraints imposed by TTCN-3 development process are exposed. Provided solutions are presented together with main features that have to be included in TTCN-3 based tools to ease test development.
