Windows Protocol Test Suites

Originally developed for in-house testing of the Microsoft Open Specifications, Microsoft Protocol Test Suites have been used extensively during Plugfests and interoperability labs to test against partner implementations. A Test Suite evaluates whether a protocol or protocol family implementation meets certain interoperability requirements. Test Suites do not cover every protocol requirement and in no way certify an implementation, even if all tests pass. However, each test suite provides users with a useful indication of interoperability.

Windows Protocol Test Suites provide interoperability testing against the implementation of Windows open specifications including File Services, Identity Management, Remote Desktop and etc.

  • SMB1 Server Test Suite. It covers the requirements documented by [MS-SMB], and those documented by other protocols which are related to [MS-SMB], i.e. [MS-FSCC] and [MS-CIFS].
  • File Server Family Test Suite. It is designed to test implementations of file server protocol family including [MS-SMB2], [MS-DFSC], [MS-SWN], [MS-FSRVP], [MS-FSA], [MS-RSVD] and [MS-SQOS].
  • RDP Client Family Test Suite. It provides interoperability testing for client implementation of RDP family protocols including [MS-RDPBCGR], [MS-RDPEDISP], [MS-RDPEDYC], [MS-RDPEGFX], [MS-RDPEGT], [MS-RDPEI], [MS-RDPEMT], [MS-RDPEUDP], [MS-RDPEUSB], [MS-RDPEVOR] and [MS-RDPRFX].

Components

Windows Protocol Test Suites contain 4 components:

  • CommonScripts. Common scripts used by each test suite. Normally they're used to deploy the environment.
  • ProtocolTestManager. A UI tool to help you configure and run test cases.
  • ProtoSDK. The protocol library used by each test suite. It provides the data structures of the protocol messages, the methods to encode and decode the messages, the methods to send and receive messages and etc.
  • TestSuites. All Test Suites code and documents are saved here and categorized by folder representing each test suite.

Prerequisites

The Test Suites are developed and must be installed on a Windows platform. You should install the following list of software in order to build Test Suites from source code.

  • .Net framework 3.5
  • Wix toolset v3.7 or higher
  • Visual Studio or Visual Studio Agent, version 2012 or higher
  • Protocol Test Framework. You can use a released MSI file or build it from source code.
  • Spec Explorer. It is only required for the test suites that contain Model-Based Test cases. If you want to regenerate Model-Based Test cases, you must install Visual Studio 2012, otherwise higher versions of Visual Studio are supported.

Model-Based Testing

Some test suites use Model-Based Testing:

  • SMB1 Server Test Suite
  • File Server Family Test Suite

Build

After you clone a copy of this repo, you can run build.cmd for Protocol Test Manager and each test suite separately.

Build Protocol Test Manager

cd WindowsProtocolTestSuites\ProtocolTestManager
build.cmd

###Build a test suite

If the test suite contain Model-Based Test cases, you should follow the below steps before building it.

After that, take SMB test suite as an example

cd WindowsProtocolTestSuites\TestSuites\MS-SMB\src
build.cmd

After the build succeeds, the MSI file of each test suite should be generated in the folder WindowsProtocolTestSuite\drop\TestSuites\[TestSuiteName]\deploy. Take SMB test suite as an example, MS-SMB-TestSuite-ServerEP.msi should be generated in the folder WindowsProtocolTestSuite\drop\TestSuites\MS-SMB\deploy.

Build all test suites

Since some test suites contain Model-Based Test cases, you should follow the steps before building all of them. After that, change to WindowsProtocolTestSuites folder:

cd WindowsProtocolTestSuites

Run buildall.cmd

buildall.cmd

Run

After the build succeeds, you could set up the test environment and install/configure/run the test suite according to its User Guide. Each test suite has its own User Guide in the WindowsProtocolTestSuites\TestSuites\[TestSuiteName]\docs folder. There're two more documents in the same folder:

  • Technical Document. The Open Specifications documentation for protocols, published by Microsoft. It's the basis of developing Test Suites.
  • Test Design Spec. It provides information about the test scope and test suite design.
