At the core of this theory there is an input-output conformance simulation relation (iocos). As a branching semantics iocos can naturally distinguish the context of local choices. We show iocos to be a finer relation than the classic ioco conformance relation. It turns out that iocos is a transitive relation and therefore it can be used both as a conformance relation and a refinement preorder. An alternative characterisation of iocos is provided in terms of testing semantics. Finally we present an algorithm that produces a test suite for any specification. The resulting test suite is sound and exhaustive for the given specification with respect to iocos. %G English %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01515238/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01515238/file/978-3-642-38592-6_9_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01515238 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01515238 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-WG %~ IFIP-TC6 %~ IFIP-WG6-1 %~ IFIP-FORTE %~ IFIP-DISCOTEC %~ IFIP-LNCS-7892
