The Multi Agent Systems are a paradigm of the most promising technology in the development of distributed software systems. They include the mechanisms and functions required to support interaction, communication and coordination between the various components of such a system. In the context of distributed test the activity of the test is performed by a set of parallel testers called PTCs (Parallel Test Components). The difficulty is in writing communication procedures of coordination and cooperation between the PTCS. In this context, we combine in this paper adaptable mobile agent with multi-agent systems technology to enhance the distributed test. The objective of this work is to eventually have a platform for compliance testing of distributed applications.
