RSP M2M Test Platform is the name of the new Comprion test solution enabling remote SIM provisioning (RSP) tests in a lab environment. Jens Christoph, in charge of eUICC M2M test solutions at Comprion, explains, “The solution consists of a modular set of server simulations providing SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) interfaces. Thanks to its modularity, RSP M2M Test Platform can be used to test each entity of the RSP architecture: eUICCs, MNO, SM-DP and SM-SR servers, and also the devices carrying the eUICC”.

Embedded UICCs (eUICCs or eSIMs) can be tested when they are accessible, and even when they are soldered into a device. Thus, the solution can be used for a variety of RSP scenarios and entities, such as downloading, installing, enabling, disabling, or deleting profiles, changing the SM-SR server, or updating policy rules or connectivity parameters of a profile. “That way, the tester can ensure various aspects of RSP according to the GSMA requirements, and also perform functional and performance testing tasks”, says Christoph.

The flexibility of the setup allows users to take control of the server behavior as well as the details of the RSP procedures.
