Gazelle core contains the fundamental set of tools that are used to conduct interoperability and conformance testing. Although the test bed has been first designed to support the IHE Connectathons, it is shaped in a way that it will fit the testing in many areas.
Core tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
| Test Management | Test Management is the application that supports the testing process, from the registration of the systems under test, through preparation and execution of the test cases, until the generation of the test report. |
| Proxy | Proxy works as a « Man in the middle ». It captures the messages exchanged between two systems under test; that’s a single source of evidences and avoid the participants from digging into their systems’ logs to provide pieces of proof. Proxy is bound to the validation services to provide a seamless workflow during testing events. |
| External Validation Service Front-end | Aka EVSClient, it is a front-end that allows the user to call the validation services from a user-friendly interface. Any validation tool implementing Gazelle-defined interface for validation services can be reached through this portal, allowing a wide variety of custom validators to be offered. |
| Gazelle Security Suite | Gazelle Security Suite (aka GSS) gathers a set of tools dedicated to security aspect testing: PKI for issuing certificates for testing, TLS simulators, and other security-oriented features. |
| Gazelle User Module | Gazelle User Module manages the user accounts and allows delegation authentication so your users only use one set of credentials through out your process. |
