RE: Minutes - Coremob 2012 is "final"

Hi mobsters,

During the Web Testing meeting this week, I described how we (AT&T) are attempting to follow up to CoreMob 2012 with analysis of the tests supporting verification of CoreMob 2012 conformance, as indicated in CoreMob 2012 as "part of subsequent work of the group". Whether this work remains in CoreMob or shifts to the general Web testing effort in W3C, is TBD, e.g. per the discussion in the Web Testing meeting held yesterday.

Nonetheless, we (AT&T) are moving forward with this assessment and I wanted to let the CoreMob CG know so that the interested members can participate as needed. For now, the continuing work in this vein will be organized on the Web Testing IG list public-test-infra@w3.org, and thru its wiki etc. 

As noted in my input to the meeting (http://blsaws.github.com/slides/20130129-WebTesting.html), we intend to use the effort resulting in CoreMob 2012 to shape our test priorities for 2013, e.g. to close the gaps in the available W3C etc tests.  This is in the interest of gaining more specific value from CoreMob 2012 (other than being an aspirational guide to what "mobile web apps need"). Our current approach to this effort is to focus on CoreMob requirements that are (in a test support sense) unmet or under-met (in which we include existing/automatable tests which are currently unautomated).

While one of the goals of the Web testing effort is to avoid us having to individually do the type of spreadsheet-based research that I uploaded to the CoreMob wiki at http://www.w3.org/community/coremob/wiki/CoreMob2012_Test_Coverage. But for now that will continue until we have a common place where we can document the results.

Thanks,
Bryan Sullivan

Subject: Minutes - Coremob 2012 is "final"

Hi folks,

The minutes of today's meeting are at  
http://www.w3.org/2013/01/30-coremob-minutes.html

Major news is that we will probably need a new editor this year, and that  
we have approved the coremob-2012 with a couple of edits that had already  
been foreshadowed as a "final" specification.

cheers

Chaals
