"These testing tools will lead to improved interoperability of products that implement profiles and underlying standards, and they will facilitate the adoption of the eEIF within European countries and between them," says Karima Bourquard, technical coordinator of the Antilope project. "We believe in open source testing tools because they allow for better maintenance, error correction, and further improvement."
Interested parties are invited to communicate their intent so Antilope can coordinate efforts and minimise duplications of efforts. The tools will be validated in the autumn of 2014 and will be demonstrated at the final Antilope conference and the European Connectathon in April 2015 in Luxembourg.

About Antilope project
The Antilope project drives eHealth interoperability in Europe and beyond. Antilope is driven by a core group of international stakeholder organisations and national eHealth competence centres including Medcom (DK), IHE Europe, ETSI, EuroRec, NICTIZ (NL), and the Continua Health Alliance. The core group has been consulting with expert partner organisations such as CEN TC 251, EN 13606 Association, GS1 and HL7, as well as with national eHealth competence centres in the EHTEL ELO network. For the organisation of regional events it relies on a number of regional support partner organisations.
Antilope is a thematic network that runs from 2013 to 2015 and is partially funded by the European Commission under the ICT Policy Support Programme (ICT PSP) as part of the Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (CIP).
