This document presents preliminary results of an on-going feasibility analysis for Global Interoperability Test Bed Methodologies (GITB) for eBusiness testing. While eBusiness scenarios are widely adopted by users in industry, governments and the public sector, it is still cumbersome for them to reach interoperability of eBusiness solutions and to achieve conformance with standards specifications. Previous experiences demonstrate the need for more advanced testing methodologies and practices which cope with the relevant set of standards for realizing comprehensive eBusiness scenarios (i.e. business processes and choreography, business documents and transport and communication), and a test bed addressing the specific requirements of multi-partner interactions.
