Certified ATML Integration Specialist (CATMLIS) Certification Program by Tonex
ATML (Automatic Test Markup Language) streamlines how organizations describe test stations, instruments, UUTs, procedures, and results to achieve true multi-vendor interoperability. This program equips systems engineers and integrators to model, exchange, and validate test assets end-to-end—bridging ATE platforms, TPS workflows, and enterprise data pipelines.
Participants learn to map ATML with DoD TPS and NATO test exchange frameworks, integrate with LabVIEW/TestStand and PXI/VXI-based systems, and enforce governance at scale. Strong attention is placed on secure data structures, identity-bound artifacts, and auditable exchanges to reduce integration risk. Cybersecurity is addressed throughout: securing ATML documents in motion and at rest, hardening toolchains that generate/consume ATML, and ensuring provenance and tamper evidence in heterogeneous environments.
Learning Objectives:
- Explain ATML components and interoperability goals
- Model station, instrument, UUT, procedure, and result descriptions
- Map ATML artifacts to DoD TPS/NATO exchange standards
- Integrate ATML with LabVIEW, TestStand, PXI/VXI ecosystems
- Validate, version, and govern ATML across the lifecycle
- Strengthen exchanges with cybersecurity controls and verifiable integrity
