Dedicated TC on Test Cases 2010-06-30

Hi all,

I have drafted a rough agenda for the Test Cases TC on Wednesday... this can still be adapted, if people have better suggestions!

My take would be:

1) we check once again whether we're all on the same page going forward with the same tet cases structure as we had in DAWG (lacking alternatives having been put on the table, I lean toward this)

2) Discuss the README for the manifest format, and whether there are any adaptions needed?
   http://www.w3.org/2009/sparql/docs/tests/README.html
   Please check the document before the TC!

3) Go through test cases proposals... I contected all owners of respective actions individually, it would be extremly helpful to have some example queries with expected answers per category at the least before the call...

4) Discuss responsibles for the test suite... My proposal would be to have one overall editor who is supported by "category responsibles" at least to start with?

5) How about test cases for non-query/non-update stuff, i.e.  Protocol, http-update-protocol? service description? Do we need test cases for that?

6) Lastly, I suggest to have a regular agendum, to collect/approve/discuss new test cases in the regular TCs

Detailed Agenda below,
as contcrete proposals for Test cases drop in (send them to the mailinglist!), I will link
them to the agenda,

Axel
