A third possibility is to make a list of all conformance statements
that a conformance checker has to check. It has the benefit to create
an easy to read, process list for implementers of such tools and to
guarantee uniformity across tools.
If the list is well designed it could be used for
- creating a test suite
- prototyping modules
- prototyping error and help messages
plus there are sections of the spec with MUST requirements, which are
difficult to implement for a conformance checker.
Some of the algorithms in this specification, for
historical reasons, require the user agent to pause
until some condition has been met. While a user agent
is paused, it must ensure that no scripts execute
(e.g. no event handlers, no timers, etc). User agents
should remain responsive to user input while paused,
however.
