        }
    }
}

  2. The EUT sends a GetResponse to the Get message sent in step 3

7.2 Use of only one session

Purpose

The purpose of this test is to ensure the EUT maintains only one WebSocket connection to a controller at a time.

Functionality Tags

Conditional Mandatory (supports the WebSocket MTP with requirement R-WS.6)

  1. Ensure the EUT is configured to use WebSocket and to comminucate to the controller that exists in the test environment.

Test Procedure

  1. Send a Get message to the EUT using the following structure:

    header {
    msg_id: '<msg_id>'
    msg_type: GET
}
body {
    request {
        get {
            param_paths: 'Device.DeviceInfo.'
        }
    }
}

  2. Attempt to open a second WebSocket connection to the EUT.

  3. Send the Get message outlined in step 1 over the new connection.

Test Metrics

  1. Either the first WebSocket connection closes when the second is opened, or the second connection is rejected.

7.4 Closing a WebSocket Connection

Purpose

The purpose of this test is to ensure the EUT correctly implements the procedure to close a WebSocket connection.

Functionality Tags

Conditional Mandatory (supports the WebSocket MTP)

Test Setup

  1. Ensure the EUT is configured to use WebSocket.
  2. Ensure there is an active WebSocket connection between the EUT and the controller that was initiated by the EUT.

Test Procedure

  1. Send a Close WebSocket control frame to the EUT.
  2. Wait for the EUT to close the underlying TCP session.

Test Metrics

  1. The EUT sends a WebSocket Close frame.

7.5 Rejection of Session Establishment

Purpose

The purpose of this test is to ensure the EUT will correctly reject WebSocket sessions.

Functionality Tags

Conditional Mandatory (supports the WebSocket MTP)

Test Setup

  1. Ensure the EUT is configured to use WebSocket.
  2. Configure the controller to reject WebSocket connections from the EUT.

Test Procedure

  1. Configure he controller to not include the Sec-WebSocket-Protocol when opening new WebSocket connections.
  2. Reboot the EUT
  3. Attempt to start a WebSocket connection to the EUT.

Test Metrics

  1. The EUT rejects the WebSocket connection with the missing Sec-WebSocket-Protocol header.

7.6 Error Handling - Unprocessed Records

Purpose

The purpose of this test is to ensure the EUT correctly closes the WebSocket connection when a malformed USP Record is receieved.

Functionality Tags

Conditional Mandatory (supports the WebSocket MTP)

Test Setup

  1. Ensure the EUT is configured to use WebSocket
  2. Ensure there is an active WebSocket connection between the EUT and controller.

Test Procedure

  1. Send a malformed USP record to the EUT.

Test Metrics

  1. After step 1 the EUT closes the WebSocket connection with a WebSocket Close control frame containing status code 1003.

7.7 Use of Ping and Pong frames

Purpose

The purpose of this test is to ensure the EUT correctly uses Ping and Pong control frames to keep the WebSocket session alive.

Functionality Tags

Conditional Mandatory (supports the WebSocket MTP)

Test Setup

  1. Ensure the EUT is configured to use WebSocket
  2. Ensure there is an active WebSocket session between the EUT and the Controller.

Test Procedure

  1. Send a Ping control frame to the EUT.
  2. Wait up to 60 seconds for a Pong control frame from the EUT.
  3. Send a Pong control frame to the EUT.

Test Metrics

  1. The EUT sends a Pong control frame in response to the Ping control frame.
  2. The EUT doesn’t terminate the WebSocket connection after recieving an unsolicited Pong control frame.

7.8 WebSocket Session Retry

Purpose

The purpose of this test is to ensure the EUT will correctly attempt to reestablish a WebSocket session if a session is unexpectedly closed.

Functionality Tags

Conditional Mandatory (supports the WebSocket MTP)

Test Setup

  1. Ensure the EUT is configured to use WebSocket.
  2. Ensure there is an active WebSocket connection between the EUT and controller.

Test Procedure

  1. Send a Get message to the EUT with the following structure:

    header {
    msg_id: '<msg_id>'
    msg_type: GET
}
body {
    request {
        get {
            param_paths: 'Device.LocalAgent.Controller.<test controller instance>.MTP.<active MTP instance>.'
        }
    }
}

  2. Configure the controller to reject new WebSocket connections.

  3. Terminate the underlying TCP connection on the existing WebSocket connection.

  4. Wait for the EUT to attempt to establish a WebSocket connection.

  5. Configure the controlle to accept new WebSocket connections.

  6. Wait for the EUT to attempt to establish a WebSocket connection.

Test Metrics

  1. The EUT attempts to start a new WebSocket connection in conformance with the SessionRetryMinimumWaitInterval parameter.
  2. The EUT makes a second attempt to start a new WebSocket connection in confromance with the SessionRetryMinimumWaitInterval and SessionRetryIntervalMultiplier parameters.

7.9 Use of TLS

Purpose

  2. Ensure the EUT and controller both have the required certificates to secure a websocket connection.

Test Procedure

  1. Reboot the EUT.

  2. Wait for the EUT to connect to the controller.

  3. Send a Get message to the EUT with the following structure:

    header {
    msg_id: '<msg_id>'
    msg_type: GET
}
body {
    request {
        get {
            param_paths: 'Device.DeviceInfo.'
        }
    }
}

  4. Wait for GetResponse from the EUT.
