Test Compatibility Kit (TCK)

The Test Compatibility Kit (TCK) provides end-to-end (E2E) testing scripts that validate EDC implementations against the Tractus-X SDK. They ensure that the complete data exchange flow works correctly — from provider data provision through consumer data consumption — across multiple protocol versions.

Available TCK Suites

Suite	Target	Versions	Status
Connector TCK	Eclipse Tractus-X Dataspace Connector (TX-EDC)	jupiter (< 0.10.0) saturn (>0.11.0)	Available

What the TCK Validates

• Management API Compatibility — Asset, Policy, and Contract Definition creation
• DSP Protocol Compliance — Catalog requests, contract negotiation, transfer processes
• ODRL Policy Enforcement — BPN-based access control, framework agreements, usage policies
• Verifiable Credentials — Proper dataspace onboarding and credential validation
• EDR Token Flow — Endpoint Data Reference generation and authenticated data access
• JSON-LD Context Handling — Semantic web standards across protocol versions
• SDK Service Layer — Provider and Consumer service initialization and operations

Note

TCK tests require both Provider and Consumer organizations to be properly onboarded in the Catena-X dataspace with valid Verifiable Credentials that satisfy all policy constraints being tested.
