Summary of 2005-Jun-29 exit criteria examples meeting

Hello all,

Martin and I met on 2005-Jun-29 to discussed the principles and  
approach, and to sketch the type of scenarios and number of scenarios  
needed.

To summarise, the principles to which we agreed are that the exit  
criteria examples to be developed would be:
1) Designed starting with atomic features in mind, such that each  
example would cover a particular feature. As we carry on we would  
consider opportunities for refactoring. As such we would not use a  
single all-encompassing, top-down designed example.
2) Designed to be generic, as they are not intended to serve as a  
tutorial, but rather as tests for each of the relevant features.  At  
the same time this is not a conformance test suite; as such these  
will be designed to positively and atomically test functionality,  
including exception checking, and not perform any negative testing or  
test extensibility.
3) Designed to focus in interops.
4) Designed with no semantics-implied labels or explicit syntactic  
checking.
5) Designed to atomically test features, and not explicitly check all  
permutations of attributes, qualities of service (QoS), features or  
bindings.

As per the meeting notes, Martin and I have developed a plan for 40  
test scenarios. If you have any others please bring them to our  
attention and we will consider them with respect to the outlined  
principles for inclusion.
