Requirements by Product Standard


This summarizes requirements for the Test Suites to be used in support of the Open Brand program.

The first half of the page covers the Base, Base 95, UNIX 95, COE Platform, Common Desktop Environment (CDE) Product Standards, UNIX 98 , UNIX 98 Workstation, UNIX 98 Server, UNIX 03 and UNIX V7 Product Standards.
The second half of the page covers the complete set of individual Product Standards.

Links in the tables below are to Product Standard definitions or descriptions of the Test Suites.

Full details of all Registered Products and their related Product Standards can be obtained from the Directory of Registered Products on The Open Group's web site.



Base and UNIX

This is a summary of the Open Brand and its various Product Standards and the relationship to UNIX and the Single UNIX Specification. The UNIX trademark is a registered trademark of The Open Group.

Products which claim to conform to the Single UNIX Specification need to be registered as conformant to the UNIX 95, UNIX 98, UNIX 03 or UNIX V7 Product Standards. There are other Product Standards which may be registered which go part of the way to the full UNIX brand and these Product Standards and their composition are set out below.

Product Standard Requirements

N.B. The set of required Test Suites identified below is liable to change over time as new suites become available and approved as Indicators of Compliance.
