TC8 SOME/IP Conformance Testing

This section defines the requirements, test specifications, and traceability for OPEN Alliance TC8 SOME/IP conformance testing of the SOME/IP Gateway.

The TC8 test suite covers two scopes:

• Protocol Conformance — Tests someipd at the wire level using raw UDP/TCP sockets and the someip Python package. No application processes are needed. someipd runs in --tc8-standalone mode.

• Application-Level Tests — Tests the full gateway path (mw::com client → gatewayd → someipd → network) using C++ apps built on score::mw::com. These tests are stack-agnostic.

All tests live under tests/tc8_conformance/ and share the tc8 / conformance Bazel tags. For the architectural overview, test topology diagrams, and module structure, see TC8 SOME/IP Conformance Testing.
