ContinueWithArgument

Overview

The Continue With Argument operation represents the receipt of an INAP ContinueWithArgument. The test instance will abort if any other inbound message is received.

This message is received by the IN Tester when it is simulating the role of a Service Switching Platform (SSP).

Direction: INBOUND
From: SCP (Application Under Test)
To: SSP (IN Tester)

Attributes

The operation attributes are as follows.

Attribute	Type	Description
`type`	String	`inap.ssp_from_scp.ContinueWithArgument`
`label`	String	An optional label for this node if it is to be the target of a `branch` operation.
`last_component`	`1` / `0`	If `1` performs a test that this is the last component of a TCAP_END message. If `0` performs a test that this is not the last component of a TCAP_END message. (Default = do not perform any test).
`tcap_ac`	`null` / TCAP alias / Hex String	Tests the received TCAP Application Context from the first inbound TCAP_CONTINUE / TCAP_END dialogue portion. If `null` tests that we did not receive a dialogue portion. (Default = do not perform any test).
`tcap_result`	Integer	Tests the received `result` value from the first inbound TCAP_CONTINUE / TCAP_END dialogue portion. If `null` tests that we did not receive a dialogue portion. (Default = do not perform any test).
`tcap_result_diagnostic_user`	Integer	Tests the received `dialogue-service-user` value from the first inbound TCAP_CONTINUE / TCAP_END dialogue portion. If `null` tests that we did not receive a dialogue portion, or that it did not contain a user result diagnostic. (Default = do not perform any test).
`tcap_result_diagnostic_provider`	Integer	Tests the received `dialogue-service-provider` value from the first inbound TCAP_CONTINUE / TCAP_END dialogue portion. If `null` tests that we did not receive a dialogue portion, or that it did not contain a provider result diagnostic. (Default = do not perform any test).
`arguments`	Object	[Required] The structure of the INAP ContinueWithArgumentArg we expect to receive. Expressions may be supplied within this structure.

Example

This is an example entry within the operations array:

{
    "type": "inap.ssp_from_scp.ContinueWithArgument",
    "arguments": {
        "legID": { "sendingSideID_hex": "01" }
    }
}

Arguments

The following inbound arguments are supported. Unless specifically indicated otherwise, the actual received inbound arguments will be checked for each supplied “expected” value, and Pass/Fail entries will be generated in the test instance check_log.

To check that an inbound value is NOT present, specify the argument as null.

Argument	Type	Notes
`extensions`	Array of Object	Specify extension parameters as an array of Objects.
.`type`	Integer	Must match an `inap`.`extensions` number from the `ExecuteTest` request.
.`criticality`	Integer	Integer (Default = `0`).
.`value`	Binary String	This attribute can be specified as binary data.
.`value_inner`	Integer/String	Used as INTEGER or OCTET STRING as per extension encoding. Ignored if `value` is defined.
`legID`	Object	May contain `sendingSideID` and/or `receivingSideID` as appropriate.
.`sendingSideID`	Binary String	Specify this parameter as a single byte binary value.
.`receivingSideID`	Binary String	Specify this parameter as a single byte binary value.
