The XML Query Working Group and the
XSL Working Group would like to announce the availability of an early version
of the XML Query Test Suite (XQTS) at http://www.w3.org/XML/Query/test-suite/.
This version, XQTS 0.6.0, contains over
7000 test cases, about 60% of the tests that we anticipate it will have
when it is finished. These test cases are based on the Last Call WD documents
that were published on April 4. XQTS contains an XML catalog document that
describes the source documents and schemas that may be used and it describes
each of the test cases. The test queries and expected results are contained
in individual files. XQTS provides test cases for the features required
for minimal conformance to XQuery and for XQuery's optional features. All
of the functions in Functions and Operators are (or will be) tested.
Implementors are encouraged 1) to write
a harness for this test suite and to test their implementations, 2) to
report their results to the XML Query Working Group, and 3) to submit test
cases to the XML Query Working Group to help us complete our coverage of
XML Query 1.0. We have provided guidelines (linked from the page above)
to assist implementors in all three of these steps. We have provided a
list of features for which we would particularly like to see test case
submissions.
We will be using Bugzilla to track and
resolve bugs that are reported. We will, from time to time, publish new
versions of XQTS that contain bug fixes and additional test cases. We ask
that implementors send us their results early and then send us new results
as the test suite evolves and as their implementations evolve.
