Conformance Test Tool

[leecalcote]

Like other specifications, SMI needs a set of conformance tests, conformance utility and dashboard.

Meshery used as the underlying technology for conformance tests with these goals and acknowledgments:

• A public, third-party compatibility matrix identifying the SMI features that are supported per service mesh.
• Definition of what behavior is expected and conforms to spec. vs not. Partial conformance could be defined by a minimum requirement. It may be that partial conformance allows for / encourages extensibility.
• Difference between conformance and full implementation given that some meshes may conscientiously never fully implement functions.

Meshery is soon to be used in the release process of each of the major service mesh projects for performance testing and as such can perform SMI validation testing at the same time.
