Type: oval-def:TestType
Containing Schema: independent-definitions-schema.xsd
Abstract
Documentation:
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. It extends the standard TestType as defined in the oval-definitions-schema and one should refer to the TestType description for more information. Note that for an unknown test, the required check attribute that is part of the extended TestType should be ignored during evaluation and hence can be set to any valid value.
