## Description

Ofcom expects to hold an auction in FY Q4 2019/2020 to award licences for spectrum in the 700 MHz and 3\.6-3\.8 GHz bands\. Ofcom has a requirement for testing of an electronic auction system \(EAS\) designed to run an auction, specifically user acceptance testing on the user interfaces and that the EAS accurately implements the auction rules\. For simplicity, we refer to this testing as "EAS testing"\.
