My view is that this existing repository should be expanded to include all test case archetypes in ADL and any of the other serialised formalisms. Today it does mainly concentrate on ADL/AOM 1.5 test cases. Let's think about what other test case material could be added, and how it should be organised. Rong Chen (Sweden) and Koray Atalag (NZ) have thought quite a lot about this in the past and I am sure would have ideas to contribute - Erik Sundvall has been thinking about some of the other serialisations. I have to admit to only having seriously thought about test cases for bidirectional tool processing, which is currently ADL, dADL, and will extend to XML-AOM (I just haven't gotten around to this yet). I have not thought too much about test cases for JSON or YAML, but I have done the output serialisations for them. Having done the first implementation of JSON, I think it is too weak a formalism to be seriously useful, because it lacks too many basic semantics - particularly dynamic type markers. Its cousin YAML is over-complicated (and in its whitespace form, nearly impossible to get right!), but does have proper OO semantics and I think can be used as a lossless serialisation. Others may have more evolved ideas on how these particular formalisms should be used in openEHR, so I am very happy to be educated by the experts. My main aim is to make sure that the transformations of ADL => JSON and ADL => YAML are correct. You can experiment with JSON, YAML and XML outputs of any ADL 1.4 or 1.5 archetypes right now, using the ADL workbench, which has a bulk export mode into these formalisms. We have already discussed last week with Rong & Sebastian about moving the openEHR terminology there, and how to manage it more effectively, so the scope of this knowledge repository is going to continue to grow anyway. So any community input on how to expand this repository and manage it is welcome from my point of view (I realise the above might only be a subset of your original scope Pablo, so there are probably some things that still need to be done elsewhere.) - thomas -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
