Harmonized PRL (PD/QD/RD/MP/AF) Tests Are Drafted No objections were received and are now candidates for “final” status Future changes are possible, but will be incorporated into the next phase of test cases design and implementation We will do a ‘round-the-room next on the status Vote next week to consider the harmonized Phase I test specs final RFP Has 5 respondents Bidder interviews have been conducted top few vendors Analysis is nearing completion Announcements 3

‘round-the-room Can we vote next week to consider the harmonized test specifications (presented over the last few weeks) as final? The scope of this question is the harmonized specifications for Patient Record Lookup (aka Patient Discovery, Query for Documents, and Retrieve Documents + Messaging Platform and Authorization Framework).

‘round-the-room What are your thoughts about the phased approach for harmonization? Do you object to the proposed approach?

Test Case Execution Manual: Step-by-step instructions are included in written test packages Draft tracking worksheet for execution methods What tests are the best candidates for tooling? SOAP UI as a component, review different uses of it Other utilities/components to research? What about the conformance checklists?

Refresh on Reference Toolkit concept Check-in on feedback to high-level Toolkit architecture Assumptions on prioritization at utility level Message simulation for High test cases in PD/QD/RD Proof of concept of lightweight orchestration (BDD layer) Integration of NIST content tools (c32 then CCDA) Ideas/volunteers for utilities, modules, or approaches?
