Profile T fails at start of device conformance test

[parsley72]

When I run the ONVIF Device Test Tool (22.12 rev 28) Conformance Test it does a basic check then prints:

Feature definition process PASSED (27 supported, 255 unsupported, 0 undefined)
Profile Support Preliminary Check:
   Profile S SUPPORTED
   Profile A NOT SUPPORTED
   Profile D NOT SUPPORTED
   Profile M NOT SUPPORTED
   Profile C NOT SUPPORTED
   Profile G NOT SUPPORTED
   Profile T FAILED
Not all profiles claimed are supported, conformance will be FAILED

and proceeds to run all the relevant tests. But why is Profile T failing before it runs the tests? Is there any logging I can see that would explain?

Hello @parsley72

The test result clearly shows that 255 features are unsupported which indicates that several mandatory Profile T features may have failed. You can refer the Profile feature overview available at https://www.onvif.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/onvif-profile-feature-overview.pdf?441d4a&441d4a to check the mandatory features for Profile T.

If conformance test is throwing errors, click on 'Generate All Reports with Errata' to see a list of errors with their numbers and descriptions.

The tool will then generate and save Declaration of Conformance, Test Report, and Feature List with the following name formats:

• ONVIF_DoC_produtname_firmware_timestamp.pdf
• ONVIF_TestReport_Product name_firmware_timestamp>.pdf
• ONVIF_FeatureList_Product name_firmware_timestamp>.xml

You can check the errors to find the cause of the failure. Please refer the Help file (How do I) available in the Device test tool for a more detailed explanation.

Hope this helps!

I can easily see the tests that failed in the Diagnostics tab. What I'm asking is why Profile T is shown as failing before the tests are run. The test app is obviously querying the device to see what functionality is supported and checking this against a list for the profiles. How can I see this debug?

The Device Test Tool does a feature discovery and then compares the features discovered to the Profile specifications.

The process followed for conformance is as follows:

1. Check features during Feature discovery process - DTT checks which features are claimed as supported. The results are available at Diagnostic -> Features tab.
2. Check Profiles support - DTT checks which profiles are claimed as supported and if Device has all required features for this. The results are available at Diagnostic -> Profiles tab.
3. Check features implementation by executing Test Cases. The results are available at Diagnostic -> Test Cases tab.

If one of the above fails conformance fails.
In this case something is wrong with step 2. You can check the log by opening Diagnostic -> Profiles tab and selecting the failed profile.
