What we do to a subset of Geronimo has impact on the whether it
passes. However if Geronimo passes the TCK, then a subset would
include the features that passed.
Technically speaking, you couldn't make that claim.
Does the law of transitivity not apply here? If Jetty passes the
TCK, would its use on its own in a Geronimo Lite (i.e. G + Jetty
only) not mean that we are using the passed component for web?
Strangely enough, apparently not, unless we used Jetty in exactly the
way it was packaged when it passed.
My point was:
Full G Change (where it passes) ---> G Lite contains passed code.
but
G Lite is changed -----> May impact full G's passing of TCK.
Please clarify how this claim may not be valid.
I don't quite understand. Your reasoning is logical, but the TCK is
a simple statement about the binary tested. It passes, or it doesn't
pass. That information isn't transitive to other binaries that
aren't the same. You need to test those too...
