Hello,
Michael's recent question spurred me to ask a lingering one that I have
had: namely, has anyone developed an approach to unit testing XForms
applications, specifically in XSLTForms?
I know of Eric van der Vlist's XForms Unit project (http://xformsunit.org/),
which I believe uses the Orbeon Form Runner as its testing environment, but
the project doesn't seem to be under active development.
I'm interested in finding a simple approach to testing in XSLTForms.
Perhaps some custom actions could be defined to implement standard testing
functions such as assert, assert-equals, etc.?
Best regards,
Tim
