An extension of the parametrized post-Newtonian (PPN) formalism to third order in the expansion parameter m/r is used to derive analytical expressions accurate to the same order for the motion of test particles and photons in the presence of the gravitational field of the sun represented by a static, isotropic metric. The consequences of including higher-order terms are discussed in relation to the so-called classical gravitational tests for the case of general relativity theory. Present observational or experimental data are not accurate enough to detect variations due to the inclusion of higher-order terms but a planned solar probe experiment may provide information that would make such detection possible.
