Claim Text:
1. A method in a first radio network node for testing a transmission parameter value in a wireless communication system, which first radio network node is comprised in the wireless communication system, and which first radio network node is configured to, during operational mode thereof, perform transmissions using available resources comprising time resources and frequency resources which are divided into resource blocks, wherein each resource block has a respective time range and a respective frequency range, and which first radio network node has a transmission parameter which, during operational mode of the first radio network node, is set to a nominal value, the method comprising: allocating a test resource block among the available resources, for test purposes, defining, for the test resource block, a test value for the transmission parameter, wherein the test value differs from the nominal value, performing, during operational mode, a test transmission using the test resource block, wherein the transmission parameter during the test transmission is set to the test value, and wherein the test transmission is configured to form the basis for an evaluation of the test value.
