Could you let our group know whether you think this is going in the right direction, and what the next steps should be on our side? This is going great. However, as the test suite is being built we would appreciate feedback from a specification verification perspective: are there assertions made that are not testable or that could be better written, and if there is much variability in the specification? These feedback is crucial for Web Apps if we are to improve the quality of our specifications. Unless you guys have a better way to do this, I would like to see the specification follow the CSS2.1 Test Case Authoring Guidelines (even if those guidelines are not complete). Also, would it be helpful if the tests were moved to the public CVS server? should they sit in 2006/waf/widgets/tests/ if so? The tests are now there. However, I think it makes more sense for if each spec had it's own test suite. For example, tests for Widgets 1.0: Digital Signatures would sit in 2006/waf/widgets-digsig/tests/, etc. Kind regards, Marcos
Re: Next steps on Widgets testing?
Dom, Today, during the Widgets voice conf, we briefly discussed the location you proposed and we agreed with your proposal. Regarding looking at the detailed test cases, Marcos reported he's done a first pass and didn't see any issues. Realistically, I don't believe we will do an in-depth analysis until the beginning of next year. -Thanks, Art Barstow On Nov 25, 2008, at 6:29 PM, ext Charles McCathieNevile wrote: On Tue, 25 Nov 2008 15:05:23 +0100, Dominique Hazael-Massieux [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Art, Charles, As was discussed during the WebApps WG F2F in Cannes, the Mobile Web Test Suites Working Group (and in particular, Kai Hendry) has started to work on developing test cases for the Widgets Packaging and Configuration specification: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2008OctDec/ 0235.html There are already quite a number of test cases available there (~50), that target well-defined part of the specifications.

I think it's better to have tests in CVS than to have them listed in an attachment in a mail archive. I am not fussed about where they go, but your suggestion seems as good as any. I presume that the groups will at some point go through the tests and decide whether they are happy with them all... cheers Chaals -- Charles McCathieNevile Opera Software, Standards Group je parle français -- hablo español -- jeg lærer norsk http://my.opera.com/chaals Try Opera: http://www.opera.com
