Re: [ebxml-iic-conform] review test case material for MS conformance

Jacques,

   I am attaching a jpg image of a potential schema showing how
MIME header values could be 

incorporated into our XML syntax for specifying test cases and test
steps.  Please disregard the

naming "Sendmessage" ( as opposed to "PutMessage")
and "ReceiveMessage" ( as opposed to
"GetMessage").

  This should be a relatively simple way to "tweak" values
for messages we wish to send. 

MIME header values in a returned message could be imported into
XSLT/XPath parameter 

values for evaluation in an XPath expression.

Cheers,

Mike

Mike, Matt:

here is my take on remaining issues (see attached), after review of 

last version Mike sent out 9/8. 

I propose to close on several issues with solutions that do not pretend to be final, 

but will keep us going - and will allow for refinment later on (i.e. no throw away...). 

The general idea is: Once the basics of the test case material are defined 

(e.g. vocabulary/naming, msg material identification, CPA parameters, service/actions invoked, 

error messages and types...) then it is enough to get going on remiaining test cases. 

And we are already there (almost...). Let us not be stopped by: 

-  issues raised by shortcomings of our material when describing more complex test cases, 

- or by the ultimate formal representation of some artifacts (CPA, MIME construction) 

Once we have an inital version of all cases, we'll be in a better position 

to tackle difficult cases, and we'll be also in better position to refine our test material in a second pass. 

Let us try to finalize these few remaining issues this week at latest, 

so that the test case definitions can proceed. 

Cheers,
