Echoing Anne's suggestion on IRC, I propose each directory of a test suite to have a file named conforming.txt that lists on LF-terminated lines the names (one name per line) of conforming test cases in that directory. All other test cases in the directory would be expected to be non-conforming. If there only non-conforming test cases in a directory, a file called conforming.txt would still need to be there but empty (to flag the directory as one that has been reviewed for test case conformance). For test suites designed for conformance checker testing, I propose putting conforming test cases in a directory named valid/ and putting non-conforming cases in a directory called invalid/ and omitting conforming.txt. -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
