On November 21st the TOP Lead group will provide an online public webinar to help new comers approach TDL and the TOP tools. Find the official invitation here.

This webinar walks the audience through the main ingredients of the Test Description Language (TDL) standardized at ETSI.

It showcases the use of TDL for designing scenario-based test purposes and test descriptions, using examples from test suites standardized at ETSI. An integrated development environment for TDL, developed as part of the TDL Open Source Project (TOP) under the guidance of the ETSI Technical Committee Method for Testing and Specification (TC MTS), will be demonstrated as means to get started with using TDL today.

To accelerate the adoption of TDL, ETSI has launched TOP (TDL Open Source Project), an Open Source implementation of TDL to lower the barrier to entry for both users and tool vendors using this new language. This Open Source toolset comprises graphical and textual editors as well as other facilities. The TOP project is accessible from the Open Source page enabling users to download the toolset and to encourage contributions.

TOP toolset is developed on top of the Eclipse platform and related technologies, such as Xtext and Sirius, that are well known and developer friendly. Hosted and managed at ETSI, as of today the TOP source base is openly accessible. It is distributed under the Eclipse Public License (EPLv1).
