I try to keep what I know about URI/IRI testing in http://esw.w3.org/topic/UriTesting An IRI test suite is supposed to be in progress: "The WG is soliciting implementation reports on this specification and related technology. The WG plans to submit this specification for consideration as a W3C Proposed Recommendation as soon as the following conditions are met: 1) The document Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs) is published as an RFC in IETF Proposed Standard status. 2) There is a test suite that tests the use of IRIs along at least the following axes:" -- http://www.w3.org/TR/charmod-resid/ W3C Candidate Recommendation 22 November 2004 I have vague memories of status updates on that test suite, but I can't find records quickly. > Context: > I wanted to test the module [urlparse of python][1].

I talked with Guido about that at one of the python conferences. He seemed open to patches. That was years ago. Since then, Tim and I did our own implementation in python, with test cases: http://www.w3.org/2000/10/swap/uripath.py I haven't managed to get back to the python community about putting it in the standard library. > [1]: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-urlparse.html > [2]: http://www.iana.org/assignments/uri-schemes.html > [3]: http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Lib/urlparse.py? > rev=43546&view=log > -- Dan Connolly, W3C http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/
