Protocol Testing Types:-

There are different types of protocol testing. Some protocol testing types are mentioned as below:-
1- Functionality Testing
2- Performance Testing
3- Protocol Stack
4- Interoperability

When we perform protocol testing then we have to verify mainly three checks mentioned as below:-

• Correctness:- Do we accept packet X at what time we assumed.
  
• Bandwidth:- How much packets we can dispatch per second.
  
• Latency:- How much time taken by a packet to transfer the system.
  

Protocol testing can be separated into two groups:-

1- Stress and Reliability Tests:- This contains

• Stress testing
• Load testing
• Performance testing

2- Functional Tests:- This contains

• Interoperability testing
• Negative testing
• Conformance testing
