Graphical Presentation Format of transaction model for general network management interface test

NMI (network management interfaces) are important part of network management system. The conformance testing of NMI is an important mean to ensure interconnection, inter-working, interoperability among management systems. In order to complete complex function or service test for NMI, a series of test cases must be organized together with logical relationship to compose test transaction. Using test transaction to execute test automatically can improve test efficiency and reduce test cost. Currently, test transaction is described by script format and can not support visual edit. This paper presents a Graphical Presentation Format to describe test transaction so that test transaction is easily edited and showed flexibility.
