The SIP Forum announced the completion and release of its first SIP test suite, called the SIP Forum Test Framework. The open source test framework allows SIP device vendors to test for common protocol errors. It is freely available under the GNU General Public Licence (GPL) to test implementations against a test suite and framework that is SIP RFC 3261 compliant.
This license, commonly used in the software engineering community, enables anyone to copy, distribute and modify the open-source program, thus insuring wide distribution and use. RFC3261 is the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) document that describes the SIP communications protocol.
The SIP Forum Test Framework (SFTF) v1.0 is being hosted at SIPfoundry.org’s Web site. http://www.sipforum.orghttp://www.sipfoundry.org
