cmi5 Conformance Testing

AU Testing Approach

The group had an in-depth discussion about the nature of AU tests and how the would differ from LMS tests, given the design of AU's would have much more variability. Based on this discussion, the group determined that the best approach for testing AU's is as follows:

• There is really only one "scenario"
  • Launch each AU in course and re-enter.
  • AU Vendor/provider will provide instructions to exercise the AU features to generate enough data to verify them with AU test suite.
    • Number of times and circumstances to Re-enter
  • The suite will detect features with Success/Failure of each feature (Statement, data element, etc.)
  • Test suite will apply rules to all of the data generated in LRS (all requirements)
  • Test suite will verify returnURL behavior at launch time.

cmi5 testing requirements

The group agreed to the following to the testing requirements document:

cmi5_9.5.3_5 Assignable Unit (AU): The AU must set the "completion" property of the result to true for completed (cmi5 defined) statements.

cmi5 Specification Defects

During the review of AU testing requirements the group found that the cmi5 specification did not have specific prohibitions of AUs making cmi5 defined statements intended for only for LMS(i.e. Waived, Abandoned, Launched, Satisfied).

The group agreed to created a pull request for a future spec release to address this gap. For the current spec version, the test suite will designed to generate warnings if AU' issue LMS specific statements.

See Prohibition of AU using LMS specific Verbs #575
