The Redfish +Interoperability Profile is a JSON document written in a particular format +that serves two purposes. + +* It enables the creation of a human-readable document that merges the + profile requirements with the Redfish schema into a single document + for developers or users. +* It allows a conformance test utility to test a Redfish Service + implementation for conformance with the profile. + +The JSON document structure is intended to align easily with JSON payloads +retrieved from Redfish Service implementations, to allow for easy comparisons +and conformance testing. Many of the properties defined within this structure +have assumed default values that correspond with the most common use case, so +that those properties can be omitted from the document for brevity. + +Validation of Profiles using DMTF tool +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +An open source utility has been created by the Redfish Forum to verify that +a Redfish Service implementation conforms to the requirements included in a +Redfish Interoperability Profile. The Redfish Interop Validator is available +for download from the DMTF's organization on Github at +https://github.com/DMTF/Redfish-Interop-Validator. Refer to instructions in +README on how to configure and run validation. + + .. _Redfish: http://redfish.dmtf.org/ .. _Sushy: https://opendev.org/openstack/sushy .. _TLS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security |
