This paper proposes an formal approach to conformance testing for OSPF v2, a widely used distributed routing protocol in Internet. Routing function is performed in a distributed system, thus the testing is more complex than traditional peer-to-peer protocol. Concurrent TTCN is a test notation that can handle concurrent test behaviors and it is suitable for the routing function testing. We first discuss a concurrent TTCN based OSPF test architecture. Then we formally define and implement a concurrent TTCN based test system based on an extension of LTS (Labelled Transition System). Finally, we present a specification model CEBE to specify an OSPF entity and to generate (combine the data and control flow) test suite.
