Language-Independent Testing

Testing implementation using IBDL can be done in an implementation language-independent fashion. But it will be dependent on the interface language binding. For example, if we choose IDL [3] as the interface language then the validation module can be generated to conform to the binding of a specific implementation language, e.g. Java, and the interface can be generated in IDL. Then the implementation can use the generated interface to develop the implementation in any language for which a binding is defined, e.g., C++ and it will be (sequence) testable using IBDL4.
