Projectathon #2

A marathon of peer-to-peer interoperability and compliance tests in a structured environment.

Past event

Once-Only Technical System Projectathon #2 Insights

The June 2023 Projectathon will be based on the Q1 2023 release of the Once-Only Technical Design Documents as amended with any corrections from the errata list.

For this event, the test cases prepared for the April 2023 Projectathon are largely taken over as it still reflects the main plans of the Member States. It consists of the following elements:

• 5 Evidence Exchange scenarios without preview,
• 5 Evidence Exchange scenarios with preview,
• 2 Maintenance flow scenarios (Common Service updates).

A high-level overview and summary of test cases is available to the testing and deployment sub-group (restricted to relevant users on the wiki).

The full test cases are accessible via the Gazelle platform (restricted to users that registered as participants to the Projectathon).

In addition, the June Projectathon will allow for some more advanced scenarios to be discussed in exploration sessions or in a restricted test session between those teams that are ready for the next level of tests (e.g. more dynamic eID test cases by integrating eID nodes into the transactions, test cases covering related systems, e.g., adding actual Base Registries to the test cases).

The tests will start with static and pre-agreed data. This is to be discussed in and shared through the relevant subgroup (Testing and deployment) and/or collaborative space on Teams.

Those Member States that want to go further and create custom datasets or dynamic datasets for bilateral tests can do so as well.

Other Past Projectathons

Since 2023, the Commission has been organising Once-Only Technical System Projectathons. These are three-day events where national teams connect various systems and perform a marathon of peer-to-peer interoperability and compliance tests in a structured environment.
