Indeed, _conform_ has a secondary meaning, "to act or be in accord
or agreement; to comply."  That is however only a secondary meaning.

In an IT context "conformance testing" is a well-known term.  I have
not yet read "compliance testing" anywhere.

Like standards, dictionaries are wonderful in that there are many
from which to choose

Yeah, sometimes I use en-gb-oed as language tag just for fun... :-)

Google test (using the phrases, i.e. with quotes):

"conformance test" 368,000   Limited to IETF: 706
"compliance test"  456,000   Limited to IETF:  99
