Abstract
Documentation:
This test has been deprecated in version 4.1 of the oval-schema and will be removed completely in version 5. It is recommended that all future OVAL Content use the unknown_test found in the independent schema. An unknown test acts as a placeholder for tests whose implementation is unknown. Any information that is known about the test should be held in the notes child element that is available through the extension of the abstract test element. An unknown test extends the testType. The required result attribute holds the result of the analysis, either true, false, or error.
