Opensuse X Suse 11

Hello guys,
I would like some information that I could not find on the site:
redhat fedora use as a tester to provide its versions - or something like that …
I wonder how this with Opensuse X Suse …

the Opensuse is a tester’s Suse?
is a distribution based on Suse?

an example:
Oracle Linux 6 is based on redhat 6.

I would like to install the Oracle (certified for Suse 11) in Opensuse if the Opensuse was a “copy” of Suse, I could install and feel more confident in terms of approval …

if this analogy is possible, then how versions relate? what version of openSUSE is equivalent in Suse 11 ??

Thank you.

There is none that is an exact equivalent.

openSUSE is a testing model for SUSE but not one to one equivalent. Oracle should work though

There is no approval for openSUSE.

The relation is not direct. Till now, SUSE is based on Factory and
openSUSE stable versions, with a lot of additions and modifications.
