What is the relationship between the VVSG, test suites, test lab conformance testing, and EAC certification?
Think of the relationship between the VVSG, test suites, conformance testing and certification as a set of building blocks with each layer depending on the layer beneath it. None of the higher-level blocks can be performed unless the box beneath it has been completed. Thus, conformance testing cannot be performed unless test suites exist that are built from the standard. Certification can only be accomplished when all the lower levels building blocks are in place.
