Certification
  WAP 2.0 CERTIFICATION PROGRAM    

The Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) certification program for clients and servers, which was developed and is operated by The Open Group, certifies conformance to the WAP 2.0 specifications published by the Open Mobile Alliance™(OMA).

Benefits

The program benefits both customers and vendors by:

  • Providing assurance of the platform conformance and interoperability
  • Matching the level of assurance to the needs of the particular application

Under the program, vendor guarantee conformance to specification. This guarantee ensures that products conform to a specification, remain conformant throughout the life of the product’s registration, and any non-conformance will be promptly fixed. All current certified products are listed in the Certified Products Register.

Development testing services for WAP
As many companies do not have the facilities to cater for extensive development and pre-certification testing of products, The Open Group offers access to test suites containing identical tests to those available in the WAP certification programs in a framework customized specifically for development testing of products.

Testing service options:

  • Online Subscription Service with group or individual access to the online test suites enables cost-effective product testing in a live environment
  • Download Service of the test suites, with or without the online access, is suitable for companies interested in performing development testing in a controlled environment. This option allows companies to perform extensive in-house testing without concerns of external interruptions like ISP problems, to schedule maintenance updates to fit in with testing schedules, and to add new tests within the framework.
