Introduction

1. Standard Overview

GB/T 43575-2023 National Standard of the People's Republic of China "Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technology System Testing Specification" provides comprehensive technical guidance for the testing of blockchain systems. This standard is applicable to third-party evaluation agencies, blockchain system builders and users, and aims to ensure the functional integrity, performance stability, security and reliability of blockchain systems.

2. Standard Framework Comparison

Test Dimensions	Core Requirements	Implementation Focus
Functional Testing	Covering the user layer, service interface layer, core function layer and infrastructure layer, ensuring the correctness and integrity of various system functions.	Perform specific test items according to Table A.1 in Appendix A, focusing on key functions such as transaction submission and smart contract execution.
Performance test	Includes evaluation of indicators such as time characteristics, capacity and resource utilization to ensure stable operation of the system under high load.	Perform detailed analysis with reference to the performance test indicators (such as throughput and maximum number of concurrent users) specified in Table 1.
Security test	In accordance with the requirements of GB/T22239-2019 network security level protection, ensure that the system has the ability to resist various attacks.	Focus on checking the security mechanisms of the user layer, service interface layer and core function layer, such as private key protection and consensus mechanism anti-attack.
Reliability test	Evaluate the fault tolerance, recoverability and stability of the system to ensure normal operation under abnormal circumstances.	Includes tests of key indicators such as node reliability, transaction execution success rate and system recovery time.

3. Background of standard formulation and analysis of technological evolution

With the rapid development of blockchain technology, its application in finance, supply chain management, medical health and other fields is becoming more and more extensive. However, the complexity and diversity of blockchain systems have also brought higher testing requirements. The formulation of GB/T 43575-2023 fills the gap in the field of domestic blockchain system testing and provides the industry with a set of unified technical standards and implementation guidelines.

4. Implementation suggestions

• Test environment preparation: Ensure that the test environment is consistent with the actual application scenario, covering hardware, software and network conditions.
• Test team formation: Assign responsibilities according to the roles described in Table 2, including test leader, designer, development engineer, etc., to ensure efficient execution of testing work.
• Test case design: Based on the test item list in Appendix A (such as Table A.1 and Table A.2), develop comprehensive test cases, and combine black box and white box testing methods to improve test coverage.
• Defect management and improvement: For problems found during the test process, record and classify them in a timely manner, and make system improvements according to the requirements of Section 7.5.
