context: Provide TTCN as a separate set of files. The following text should be used for ATSs using TTCN-3. The subdivision is recommended. This ATS has been produced using the Testing and Test Control Notation (TTCN-3) according to ETSI ES 201 873-1 [<x>]. The ATS was developed on a separate TTCN-3 software tool and therefore the TTCN-3 definitions are not completely referenced in the table of contents. The ATS is contained in a set of ASCII files (<filename>.TTCN contained in archive <filename>.ZIP) which accompanies the present document.
description: Testing and Test Control Notation (TTCN-3) is a standardized language used to define and execute tests for communication protocols and services. It provides a structured framework for specifying test cases, procedures, and expected results, enabling comprehensive validation of telecommunication systems.
explanation: TTCN-3 is classified as a Testing Methodology because its primary function is to provide a systematic approach for testing and verifying the functionality of telecommunication systems. It defines the structure and rules for creating test specifications and executing tests, rather than being a specific network function, protocol, or technology itself.
