TEST METHOD FOR VERIFICATION OF AN RSP PROCESS AND ACTIVE TEST SYSTEM PROVIDING SUCH A TEST METHOD

摘要

In a test method for verification of a remote eSIM provisioning process, an eSIM profile from an RSP platform (1) under test is ordered (8). After that, a download of the ordered eSIM profile from the RSP platform (1) is triggered (9). Then, the triggered eSIM profile is downloaded (9a) from the RSP platform (1) via an over the air interface to a target eSIM or eUICC (5) in a test probe (6). It is then verified whether the ordered, triggered and downloaded eSIM profile is correct. The test probe (6) may be configured to simulate an M2M device, a smartphone and/or a consumer IoT device. Such a test method enhances the capabilities of a test system for testing mobile networks with remote eSIM provisioning, while the network connectivity and services are continuously provided by eSIM swapping.
