Title

Mapping from Test Categories to Test Assertions

Control

All the DTRs in Appendix A conceptually come under one of the two broad categories of tests stated in Section 3 i.e., PIV Middleware tests and PIV Card Application tests. Similarly, each test assertion makes specific references to the related sections in SP 800-73-3 or the related DTRs. However, overall there is a many-to-many mapping from the test suite elements (individual tests) under each of these two broad categories of tests to the DTRs (i.e., one test can map to many DTRs and one DTR can map to many tests). A similar type of relationship exists between DTRs and test assertions. To narrow the search space for cross references, Table 5-1 presents a cross-referencing guide showing the relevant DTR sections (with the section in SP 800-73-3 document from which they were derived) and test assertion sections with respect to test classes in the two broad categories of tests.
