Continuous Compliance

Every firmware update is a certification risk unless you test it

Hardware revisions, firmware patches, new protocol support. Each change can silently break OCPP conformance. Catch regressions before they reach the certification lab.

When Compliance Breaks

Four changes that silently invalidate your certification

memory

Firmware updates

Even a minor patch can alter message timing, payload structure, or state-machine behavior. A fix for one bug can introduce a protocol regression somewhere else.

developer_board

Hardware revisions

New boards, updated controllers, or swapped communication modules change how your charger interacts at the protocol level. What passed on Rev A may fail on Rev B.

swap_horiz

New protocol versions

Moving from OCPP 1.6 to 2.0.1, or adding OCPP 2.1 support, means an entirely new set of message types, security requirements, and state transitions to validate.

settings

Configuration changes

Adjusted heartbeat intervals, changed authorization modes, or modified charging profiles all affect protocol behavior and can break conformance.

The Cost of Skipping

What happens when compliance testing is an afterthought

money_off

Failed certification costs tens of thousands

A single failed lab session means weeks of rework plus another round of testing fees. Teams that discover issues late pay 5-10x more than those who catch them early.

access_time

Lab slots book out months in advance

DEKRA, TUV, and other certification labs operate on long lead times. Failing means going to the back of the queue, pushing your launch by months.

sync_problem

Field failures damage partnerships

Interoperability bugs discovered after deployment erode trust with CPO partners and network operators. Recalls and hotfixes are expensive and visible.

Your Upgrade Cycle

From code change to certified, without the guesswork.

Integrate compliance testing into every firmware and hardware release cycle. Catch regressions the same day you introduce them.

01

Change your firmware or hardware

Apply the update, revision, or configuration change to your development or staging environment.

02

Run the compliance suite

Execute the full OCPP test suite against your updated implementation. Covers authorization, transactions, diagnostics, smart charging, and more.

03

Review the AI diagnosis

Get an instant compliance report showing exactly which tests passed, which failed, and what the OCPP specification requires for each failure.

04

Fix and re-run until green

Iterate rapidly in your own environment. No lab fees, no scheduling delays. Re-run the suite after every fix until you reach full conformance.

05

Go to the lab with confidence

Submit to formal certification knowing your implementation has already been validated against hundreds of protocol scenarios.

Why teams build compliance into every release

01 / Speed

Validate in minutes, not months

Run a full compliance suite after every build. Get results in minutes instead of waiting weeks for a lab slot.

02 / Coverage

Every protocol area tested

Authorization, transactions, firmware management, diagnostics, smart charging, security. No gaps.

03 / Regression

Catch what you broke

Compare results across firmware versions. See exactly which tests flipped from pass to fail after your change.

04 / Cost

Cut certification spend

Teams that pre-validate consistently pass on the first lab attempt, eliminating re-test fees and schedule delays.

05 / Versions

OCPP 1.6, 2.0.1, and 2.1

One platform covers every protocol version your products need to support, now and as you migrate.

06 / History

Compliance audit trail

Every test run is recorded with full message logs. Build an evidence base for your quality process and certification submissions.

Stop shipping firmware without testing compliance

Every hardware revision and firmware update deserves a compliance check. Run your first test suite in minutes.
