In avionic context, systems are complex, embedded, critical, reactive and real time. In this context, testing activities are predominant in a V development process. We propose to bring in some features coming from agile methods. System integration testing that means systems are tested individually and together in order to ensure that they all operate correctly. We focus on functional and system integration testing just before the ground testing phase. Nowadays, test procedures and test plans we studied are described in textual manner and are executed manually. We aim to provide a common specific language that improves communications for the team of test designers and between test designers and test performers. In the same manner as agile test frameworks, this language allows to structure the test procedures. Moreover, this language tends to facilitate the automatic execution of some parts of the procedures. We choose a domain specific language approach to design a first domain specific test language dedicated to networks system integration.
