Abstract :
This paper highlights the importance of data type extensibility for preventing software obsolescence in automatic test systems. It describes solutions proposed by the authors for supporting such extensibility in several interfaces of automatic test systems. Some, of these solutions are proposed for interface standards currently under development, while others are implemented in existing commercial products.
