XAdES/CAdES Remote Plugtests™ Event

NOTE THIS EVENT HAS NOW CLOSED

ETSI’s Centre for Testing and Interoperability (CTI) is organizing 2 new remote Plugtests™ events for XAdES and CadES. These events will run from 25th October to 5th November 2010. ETSI is playing a key role in the development of electronic signature related standards, including XAdES (ETSI TS 101 903 v1.4.1) and CAdES (ETSI TS 101 733 v1.8.1).

XAdES

The XAdES event aims at conducting interoperability test cases on XAdES signatures.

This will include an extension to the XAdES v1.3.2 with respect to previous Plugtests events. This extended test will provide test coverage of the specification including testing signatures evolution, simulating real life situations.

A new set of specific test cases will also be provided to cover the extensions defined in the latest version of XAdES v1.4.1.

CAdES

The CAdES event aims to perform interoperability tests on CAdES implementations.

This will include an extension to the CAdES v1.7.4 with respect to previous Plugtests events. This extended test will provide test coverage of the specification including testing signatures evolution, simulating real life situations.

A new set of specific test cases that cover the changes defined in the last version of CAdES v1.8.1.

Purpose

The purpose of these events is to:

- assess the level of interoperability of XAdES and CAdES;

- consolidate solutions to interoperability issues which have been identified in previous events;

- identify additional issues which should be taken into account in future XAdES/CAdES standardization activities;

- improve the quality of XAdES/CAdES specifications; and

- ease the introduction of XAdES/CAdES signatures, by providing the means to solve interoperability problems before widespread deployment.
