ETSI TS 119 124-5

The present document defines the checks to be performed for testing conformance of CAdES signatures againstextended CAdES signatures as specified in ETSI EN 319 122-2 [2]. It defines only the checks that are specific toextended CAdES signatures. The set of checks that are common to both extended and baseline CAdES signatures, aredefined in ETSI TS 119 124-4 [3].

The complete set of checks to be performed by any tool on CAdES extended signatures is the union of the sets definedwithin the present document and the set of common checks for testing conformance against ETSI EN 319 122-1 [1] andETSI EN 319 122-2 [2] defined in ETSI TS 119 124-4 [3], as indicated in the normative clauses of the presentdocument.

The present document does not specify checks leading to conclude whether a signature is technically valid or not (forinstance, it does not specify checks for determining whether the cryptographic material present in the signature may beconsidered valid or not). In consequence, no conclusion may be inferred regarding the technical validity of a signaturethat has been successfully tested by any tool conformant to the present document.

Checks specified by the present document are exclusively constrained to elements specified by CAdES [1].

Regarding CAdES attributes, the present document explicitly differentiates between structural requirements that aredefined on building blocks, and the requirements specified for extended CAdES signatures conformance.

The present document is intentionally not linked to any software development technology and is also intentionallyagnostic on implementation strategies. This is one of the reasons why the test assertions set specified in the presentdocument includes tests on the correctness of the structure of all the elements specified by CAdES [1].
