What is interoperability testing and why is it important?
Interoperability testing is important to ensure that your supply chain can efficiently operate even when your partners are using applications developed by different software vendors. Just because a product is “conformant” or “compliant” to a standard does NOT mean that it’s interoperable. For companies engaged in the growing electronic commerce marketplace, software interoperability is vital, and its absence can strongly inhibit supply chain implementations and add significant supply chain costs. The exchange of vital information at a proven security level between automotive dealers, manufacturers and RSPs is critical for the automotive sector to meet the demands of a changing world. This requires the move toward new technical communication environments that share common data messaging standards in the supporting software.

DGI cross-tests every product-with-version against all of the other products-with -version involved in a specific test round. DGI has done extensive work in the world of interoperability, having tested products from more than 30 companies in 2002 which support three important Internet messaging standards: AS1, AS2 and ebXML messaging vs
