I'm working on the CSS Print test suite. fyi, there are a couple of things about these tests that depart a bit from the current authoring guidelines (example attached): 1. The tests contain headers marking their beginning and end when possible. This is for the tester's convenience. Especially when printing multiple tests with multiple pages back-to-back, it's important to easily ascertain where one test ends and the next begins. 2. The tests contain a "Test Purpose" statement and import a "support/test.css" stylesheet. It is expected that these tests will be utilized in environments where a statement of test purpose is required. The test.css stylesheet can set display to none for this content in the default case. Question 1: Should I design the begin and end headers to not display unless printed? Or are they ok as is? Question 2: CSS Print specifies that "a conforming user agent will support the features defined in this specification following the CSS 2.1 conformance clause ([CSS21 <http://www.w3.org/TR/css-print/#ref-css21> ] Section 3.2)". Section 3.2#1 states: "It must recognize one or more of the CSS 2.1 media types <http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/media.html> ." I didn't find an existing test for this, so I created one and named it t0302-media-01-b.htm (attached). When I get to Section 7.2.1, I find the testable assertion: "The @media construct allows style sheet rules for various media in the same style sheet:" The test already created to test 3.2#1 is also an appropriate test for the above statement in 7.2.1. Options: 1. Create a duplicate test with a new name. (Yuck) 2. Add the 7.2.1 assertion to the test purpose and an additional 'help' link to 7.2.1 to the existing test; leave the name as-is and point to it from the 7.2.1 assertion in the testable assertions list. 3. Create a different test for 7.2.1. 4. ??? To try to generalize the question a bit, when one test case covers 2 or more testable assertions, what process recommendations should be followed?
