DFDL implementations must create a class named +``TDMLDFDLProcessorFactory`` and implement the abstract functions. A new ``implementation`` +attribute is added to the ``tdml:parserTestCase`` and ``tdml:unparserTestCase`` elements to define +which tests an implementation is known to work with. + +* {% jira 723 %} Compatibility: Cross Validation test rig for DFDL and IBM implementation +* {% jira 2032 %} Improve Eclipse setup for cross testing + +New in the TDML runner is type-aware infoset comparisons.

This is incorrect behavior according to the DFDL specification, and now +results in a warning when such coercion is required.
