Abstract

In order to build the necessary PIV infrastructure to support common unified processes and government-wide use of identity credentials, NIST developed this test guidance document that ensures interoperability of PIV data. This document provides test requirements for the PIV data model. This test guidance document specifies the test plan, processes, derived test requirements, and the detailed test assertions / conformance tests for testing the PIV data model.
