Updated PDT Specifications: WHOIS Test Updates

26 October 2016

LOS ANGELES - 26 October 2016 - ICANN has published updated resources for Pre-Delegation Testing (PDT). The updated resources include test cases and test plans incorporating the Consistent Labeling and Display (CL&D) requirements described in the Registry Registration Data Directory Services Consistent Labeling and Display Policy (https://www.icann.org/rdds-labeling-display[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_rdds-2Dlabeling-2Ddisplay&d=DQMFaQ&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=mrDeztziKLa7gZqGADzxcnHA3QXmXYsnChWYBR4NElI&m=VBWmklN1ydweeof_2naloJa_8MCAcYuZCEB9KwPVGl4&s=eBAMx7NmoCzOKyrkW9vioyeGAVpAhLmfP-mgy4ZBPRQ&e=>).

To facilitate the registries implementation, prior to the effective date specified in the policy, the PDT system will provide a warning to those registry operators whose system does not yet meet the new requirements, this warning will not prevent a TLD from passing the test.

Additionally, registries may utilize the WHOIS Self Test tool, to check their system configurations for conformance to the new requirements. The tool is available here: https://github.com/dotse/Whois-Selftest-Tool[github.com]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_dotse_Whois-2DSelftest-2DTool&d=DQMFaQ&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=mrDeztziKLa7gZqGADzxcnHA3QXmXYsnChWYBR4NElI&m=VBWmklN1ydweeof_2naloJa_8MCAcYuZCEB9KwPVGl4&s=9YCnYcmAMt7axlw-BC8M40rXcvZ7BmVpCnw9xac7D10&e=>.
