Re: sample tests

yes, but I would make them even more simple:
- your color test requires support for the style element and id
attribute. A color test shouldn't rely on those. I would rely on the
tts:color attribute instead.
- the caption should state the result to expect. For example,
   "This text must be green."
   "This text is displayed from 6s to 12s."
  This enables individuals to check without looking at a master image.

I started to commit some tests in, as examples:
  http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/2008/tt/testsuite/

If folks are happy with those, we could use them as starting point.

I started to include some of the examples from the specification as
well. It would be nice if the examples in the specification can work
as-is if the feature is supported.

Some issues we face, among others, with regards to the implementation:
- no support for xml:id
  We know that one already.
- the default value of xml:space is "preserve" instead of "default". 
  Some of the captions are not visible because of extra white spaces

btw, I also have a small web application that will take those tests and
display them in the NCAM and JW Player implementations. It also allows
one to generate a report as well. If folks are interested and no one
objects, I'm happy to commit this framework as well. I'm also happy to
integrate other implementations as well, based on an implementation
example running in a Web page.
