Please find attached an example test run with the new release of the reference implementation. The tests can be started with the following command:
mvn clean verify -Pdont-break-preparation -DpoolGroupString="poolGroupString" \
-Dcucumber.filter.tags="@Ctl:BP or @Ctl:SchnittstellenDaten \
or @File:FeatureFile_00_01_V2_Basis \
or @File:FeatureFile_04_01_V2_Basis \
or @File:FeatureFile_04_04_V2_Basis \
or @File:FeatureFile_06_01_V2_Basis \
or @File:FeatureFile_06_03_V2_Basis \
or @File:FeatureFile_06_04_V2_Basis" | tee logfilename.txt
Before you start, you have to mark the following test cases with @WIP because these tests are still not implemented:
@TCID:TIMV2BASISAF040114
@TCID:TIMV2BASISAF050120
@TCID:TIMV2BASISAF060112
After that, you will execute the first 79 scenarios (158 test cases). Please feel free to execute the tests with your own test reference implementation, which you can order via the Gematik ITSM Portal.
NOTE: Our experience shows that early testing against the reference implementation is the single most important factor for a successful product approval. So, as the saying goes: the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago; the best time to start your TI-M testing is today.
Example test run:
We’re excited to announce the latest update to the TI-M Pro Light reference implementation, which brings several enhancements designed to improve your testing experience.
Key Updates
Matrix 1.11 Integration
This release includes an update to Matrix 1.11, allowing new test cases for both TI-M Pro and TI-M ePA. This is a significant step forward in ensuring the quality of your upcoming releases.
New Test Driver
We’re also introducing a new test driver that comes with its own clients. This means you can use the reference implementation without needing your own clients, making it easier to get TI-M ePA modules approved within the ePA FdV approval process. Plus- no additional TI-M Pro client required. In addition this will cut your test runtime to just a little over 20% of what it currently is!
HBA Card Upload
To take full advantage of these new features, you’ll need to upload HBA (Health Professional Card) cards. You can find detailed instructions in the user documentation here: User Documentation.
Ordering HBA Test Cards
You can order HBA test cards through the Fachportal. For more details, check out this link: Order HBA Test Cards.

If you’re interested, the current version of the test suite is available here: Current Test Suite, along with the latest test cases: Current Test Cases.
We’re looking forward to the official first full (beta) release on GitHub by March 10th, which will include the test suite and test cases. We’ll keep you posted as the release date approaches.
Thank you for your continued support! We can’t wait to see how TI-M Pro and TI-M ePA will enhance communication in German healthcare!
Germany's healthcare system is on the brink of a significant digital upgrade with the introduction of the TI-Messenger, a key feature in the upcoming electronic patient record (ePA) releases. This innovation aims to streamline communication between healthcare providers and patients, enhancing the overall efficiency and accessibility of healthcare services.
The ePA Release 3.0.5, scheduled for July 2025, will introduce the TI-M ePA, specifically designed to facilitate communication between healthcare providers and insured patients. This development promises to improve interaction and information exchange, making healthcare services more responsive and patient-centered.
Looking ahead to early 2026, the ePA will expand the use of TI-M Pro, enabling insurance providers to integrate this tool for direct communication with insured patients. This feature will empower patients by providing them with a direct line to manage their healthcare coverage and related inquiries efficiently.
These advancements in the ePA system mark a significant step forward in digital healthcare, fostering better connectivity and engagement between all stakeholders involved.
