ABSTRACT:
A testing method for allowing confirmation of provisioning of a database in a telecommunication network includes providing a plurality of test messages and associated expected responses and transmitting, according to a generic provisioning protocol, the plurality of test messages to a generic provisioning unit. The generic provisioning unit is operable to receive messages according to a generic provisioning protocol that allows receipt of messages without modification of the generic provisioning protocol whenever the database is modified. The method also includes transmitting the content of the test messages from the generic provisioning unit in the database and receiving actual responses to the test messages. The actual responses are received according to the generic provisioning protocol. The method also includes comparing the actual responses to the expected responses and generating a result based on comparing the actual responses to the expected responses. Transmitting the plurality of test messages according to the generic provisioning protocol allows the providing of the plurality of expected responses associated with the test messages whenever the database is modified.
