programming environment to simplify the development of code. If your 
programming environment doesn’t provide such support, include 
alternative tables or options for use when localizing. 
Testing an Application 
Virtually all public network operators have some testing or certification 
procedure available to help ensure that your new applications behave 
appropriately when brought onto the network. Many systems also have 
test nodes, which allow program testing without risk of interrupting the 
public network. Because each operator’s procedures and requirements 
differ, check with the operator of your target network regarding their 
individual certification procedure. 
With the proper documentation, writing an application that will operate 
on a wireless network anywhere in the world is not difficult. You don’t 
have to develop an application on site in the region where it will 
operate. For example, if your local and target networks are the same, 
the logistics associated with testing the application are fairly minimal. 
Testing an application for a distant target network requires a bit more 
planning, since the network is not directly accessible from your 
development site. In this case, two approaches are worth considering: 
 
If your application is designed for a DataTAC network in 
another country and your local network uses the same version 
of DataTAC system as the target network, sign up with your 
local network operator for service during development, test, and 
support. When the application is complete, it is likely that the 
target network operator will require validation or certification 
tests. After having used your local network for development 
tests, validation testing will probably be a straightforward 
process. 
 
If your local network is other than the target network, you 
might still want to develop a local version of the application to 
test the logic and performance of your program in a controlled 
environment. (Be sure to get advanced approval from the local 
operator to run your test version without it being validated.) In 
this case, the target network will not be tested directly and more 
verification testing will be required.
