At-Home In-Vitro Test Kit

The At-Home In-Vitro Test Kit provides an executable set of tests for the At-Home In-Vitro Test Implementation Guide v1.0.0. This test kit validates At-Home In-Vitro FHIR Bundles and their entry resources.

This test kit is open source and freely available for use or adoption by the health IT community including EHR vendors, health app developers, and testing labs. It is built using the Inferno Framework. The Inferno Framework is designed for reuse and aims to make it easier to build test kits for any FHIR-based data exchange.

Status

The At-Home In-Vitro tests verify that an At-Home In-Vitro FHIR Bundle and its entries, constructed either manually or by a digital testing application, conform to the resource profiles as defined in the implementation guide.

The test kit currently tests the following requirements:

• FHIR Bundle POST Request Verification
• FHIR Bundle Validation
• Entry Validation

See the test descriptions within the test kit for detail on the specific validations performed as part of testing these requirements.
