METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TESTING IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK
First Claim
1. A method of testing in a voice over internet protocol (VOIP) network, comprising:
- obtaining at least one test script from the VOIP network at an enhanced terminal adapter, the enhanced terminal adapter being configured to couple at least one communication device to the VOIP network;
executing the at least one test script within a scripting framework of the enhanced terminal adapter to interact with at least one component coupled to the VOIP network; and
transmitting results of the execution of the at least one test script from the enhanced terminal adapter to the VOIP network.

Abstract
Method and apparatus for testing in a communication network is described. One example of the invention relates to a method of testing in a voice over internet protocol (VOIP) network. At least one test script is obtained from the VOIP network at an enhanced terminal adapter. The enhanced terminal adapter is configured to couple at least one communication device to the VOIP network. The at least one test script is executed within a scripting framework of the enhanced terminal adapter to interact with at least one component coupled to the VOIP network. Results of the execution of the at least one test script are transmitted from the enhanced terminal adapter to the VOIP network.
