Towards an open framework of online interoperability and performance tests for the Internet of Things
Eunsook Eunah Kim, Sébastien Ziegler · 2017
This article presents an initial set of results from the F-Interop European research project researching online platform for interoperability and performance tests for the Internet of Things. IoT interoperability testing is an important step for IoT solutions but current face-to-face testing is cost-inefficient and labor-intensive. F-Interop aims to provide online interoperability, conformance, and performance testing tools enabling remote tests. This article presents the challenges faced by the IoT in online testing, and how F-Interop is addressing them, in order to provide an extensive experimental platform for online tests. It gives an overview of its overall architecture and the developing online testing tools by F-Interop.
