Inferno is an open source tool for creating, executing and sharing automated conformance tests for the FHIR Standard. Inferno on HealthIT.gov hosts several tests created with Inferno, but Inferno is designed so anyone can create and host their own tests.
Inferno on HealthIT.gov is a public host for the (g)(10) Standardized API Test Kit, which is an approved test method for the §170.315(g)(10) criterion within the ONC Certification Program. It also contains tests for several popular FHIR Implementation Guides. Browse the Test Kit page for a list of tests that are currently available.
Inferno is as flexible as the FHIR standard, and tests need to be created for each unique FHIR use case. The Inferno Framework provides tools and common approaches to testing systems for FHIR conformance. Visit the Inferno Framework Documentation Site to learn more.
Inferno makes it easy to run tests on your local machine or host a shared copy behind your firewall. Inferno tests are packaged in Test Kits, which are standalone applications tuned to Implementation Guide or certification criteria. Each Test Kit on Inferno on HealthIT.gov provides a link to its repository where you can learn how to download and run it locally.
Inferno's user interface is powered by an open, full-featured API to enable integration into external tools or continuous integration pipelines. Learn more in the Inferno Framework Documentation Site.
Comprehensive testing solutions need more than just tests. Inferno provides additional utilities, such as Reference Applications, that can be optionally integrated alongside tests within Inferno Test Kits.
