Unit Testing

 

During unit testing, LDCs test their systems (Advanced Metering Infrastructure, Customer Information Systems, etc.) with the Meter Data Management and Repository (MDM/R) and ensure all required interfaces with the MDM/R are developed and functional. It is an opportunity to test end-to-end business processes and it simplifies MDM/R integration efforts and provides the basis for documentation.
