OCTT: the OCPP COMPLIANCE TEST TOOL
OCTT is the Compliance Test Tool for OCPP implementers to test their devices on protocol conformity. With this tool you can test your OCPP 2.0.1 and OCPP 1.6 implementations and check if you have implemented the OCPP specification correctly. OCTT is a platform for testing OCPP implementations of a Charging Station Management System (CSMS), a Charging Station (CS) or a Charging Station Software Stack (CSSS).
The current OCTT was launched in October 2022. Hosted by the Open Charge Alliance, OCTT is a cloud-based solution. It is available as a subscription service with a web-based interface for testing OCPP implementations for your organization’s internal use. With OCTT, you can quickly identify and resolve potential issues.

OCPP Compliance Testing Tool can be used to test predefined testcases * to test the conformance to the guidelines specified in the OCPP specification and includes the documentation of these testcases. The tool can test the OCPP compliance of both a CS/CSSS and CSMS. When testing a CS/CSSS, OCTT will act as a CSMS and vice versa.
* Please note that OCTT is capable of executing predefined scenarios only. It is not a CS/CSSS or CSMS simulator.
The OCTT is validated through testing with our Golden SUT partners. These partners provide their OCPP implementations, allowing the OCTT to be developed against real-world systems, ensuring that OCA delivers a robust and validated tool.
