What are the MESA tests?What are the MESA tests?
“Medical Environment Simulators and Analyzers” (MESA) Test plans and softwareDocuments and software distributed to participating vendors at October workshopMESA tests must be successfully completed before the ConnectathonPurpose: Detailed tests regarding specific transactions Tests small “steps”
Sept 13-15, 2004 IHE Interoperability Workshop7
What is the Connectathon?What is the Connectathon?All participating vendor’s products together in the same place at the same timeExperts from each vendor available for immediate problem resolutionTest real-world clinical scenarios (Integration Profiles)Connectathon must be successfully completed before the tradeshow demonstrationsPurpose: Test “Integration Profile” level interoperability between vendors Post results of Connectathon on public web servers
In 2003-2004, 39 vendors tested 80+ Products in two 5-day events (Oct 2003, Jan 2004) Not counting IHE-Europe or IHE-Japan

Benefits of testing to Clinical Benefits of testing to Clinical UsersUsers
Confidence that vendor software has been tested At a detailed level per the IHE Technical Framework (MESA
test tools) At an interoperability level (Connectathon) With other vendor’s implementations (Connectathon)
Not being tested for the first time at your site (time, pain, and integration costs)Vendor Experts were on hand to report and debug interop problems, not just a service engineer now reporting a site-specific problemClinical User must verify Connectathon tested software in appropriate product release (via RFP)
Sept 13-15, 2004 IHE Interoperability Workshop13
Benefits of testing to VendorsBenefits of testing to VendorsReduce Costs!!! – problems caught earlier in software life cycle are much cheaper to fixProvides collegial forum between vendors to find and solve interoperability problemsExperts simultaneously available from many vendors (saves time)Rewarded for being well prepared (opportunity to complete testing with more vendors)Increased customer satisfaction (less problems found on site)
