Test suite

Hi,

We should start working in the definition of a test suite for the spec.
Andrei has recently contributed the tests used in Google Gears which is a
good starting point.

We would urge other members to contribute their test cases in order to
define a complete test suite for the spec.

Regarding the format... I have found this interesting document proposing the
format and the way of performing the whole testing process:
http://www.w3.org/QA/WG/2005/01/test-faq

>From this document.... a good test is:

   - Mappable to the specification (you must know what portion of the
   specification it tests)
   - Atomic (tests a single feature rather than multiple features)
   - Self-documenting (explains what it is testing and what output it
   expects)
   - Focused on the technology under test rather than on ancillary
   technologies
   - Correct

According to this guidelines, I think the optimal format could be a
HTML+JavaScript file containing a single test case. This web page should
contain an explanation of what is being tested and the expected output of
the JS code when executed within the browser.

There a lot of complete test suites form other W3C specs that can
be checked, SVG tests could be a good example of what we could deliver:
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Group/repository/testsuite/1.1/htmlEmbedHarness/

Any thoughts on this?
Any volunteers to contribute tests or to define a common pattern for this
files?
