Longdesc Testing

Hello TF,

Per our meeting yesterday [1] we invite you to consider the tests currently under consideration by the TF [2] for testing implementation support of the longdesc attribute.  These tests are a first draft and may not sufficiently demonstrate support for the attribute as described in the HTML5 Image Description specification [3].  We are looking for the following feedback:

* Suggestions for improving the quality of existing tests
* Suggestions for test cases not currently covered
* Preliminary test results

Please provide your feedback to this list (public-html-a11y@w3.org) and/or record your feedback on the longdesc testing wiki page [4].  Descriptions of the test cases as well as instructions for completing the tests are available in the README section [5] on github.
