Abstract
The Testing and Test Control Notation (TTCN-3) was originally developed as successor of the second edition of the Tree and Tabular Combined Notation TTCN-3 is a standardized test specification and implementation language to test functional behaviour of distributed systems. TimedTTCN-3 is a real-time extension for TTCN-3 that supports the test and measurement of real-time requirements. TimedTTCN-3 introduces absolute time, allows the definition of synchronization requirements for test components and provides possibilities to specify online and offline evaluation procedures for real-time requirements.
