Wed 18 Mar 2026

News / What’s new in the past OCTT release: OCTT Release_2026-02
With the OCPP Compliance Test Tool (OCTT), you can test your implementation of OCPP 2.0.1 and OCPP 1.6 and check whether you have correctly implemented the OCPP specifications, in preparation for the certification process.
The OCTT development team is working hard to further develop and improve the OCTT.
We regularly receive issues from participants using OCTT through our Support channel. The team is working hard to resolve these issues as quickly as possible and add them to OCTT through our release process.
The next OCTT release has succesfully been implemented on March 18th, and included new improvements and bug fixes.
See below the list of Testcase Set changes in Release_2026-02
In the meantime, the OCTT development team continues to resolve outstanding issues and strives to continuously improve the quality of OCTT.
Significant progress has also been made in the development of the OCPP 2.1 test cases, and we are busy testing the new version in close collaboration with our Golden SUT partners Pionix, Autel, and Current.
We will inform you as soon as we have a clearer picture of the release roadmap for the OCTT 2.1 test cases.
