XSL Stylesheet for documenting XML conformance tests.
Tested against LOTUS Xalan processor.
>>>>>>> 1.3
XSL 2001-03-15 Stylesheet for documenting XML conformance tests.
This expects to be run on a document matching the DTD that Sun
defined for merging collections of self-descriptive XML tests.
Since all those collections will have (by design) the same test
architecture, this includes boilerplate describing that design,
to be used by all test documentation.
ISSUES:
- Sorting is a bit odd; section numbers can are like "3.3.3"
rather than straight numbers, so numeric sort can't work,
and yet neither does text sort (2.12 should be after 2.2).

<h2>1. Introduction </h2>
<p>
The tests described in this document provide an initial set of metrics to determine how well a
particular implementation conforms to the following recommendations:
<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml">W3C XML
1.0 (Second Edition) Recommendation</a>,
<a href="http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2003/09/PER-xml-20030911">
Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (Third Edition)</a>,
<a href="http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2003/10/PR-xml11-20031010/Overview.html">Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.1 (First Edition)</a>,
and <a href="http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2003/05/PR-xml-names11/">Namespaces in XML 1.1</a>.
The report properly identify the tests associated to each recommendation.
All interpretations of these Recommendations are subject to confirmation by the
<a href="http://www.w3.org/XML/">
W3C XML Group </a>.
</p>
<p>
Conformance tests can be used by developers, content creators, and
users alike to increase their level of confidence in product quality. In
circumstances where interoperability is necessary, these tests can also
be used to determine that differing implementations support the same set
of features. </p>
<p>The XML Test Suite was transferred from OASIS to W3C and is being augmented to reflect the
current work of the W3C XML Core Working Group,
This report provides supporting documentation for all the tests included in
the test suite. Sources from which these tests have been collected
include: <em>
<xsl:for-each select="TESTCASES">
<xsl:value-of select="@PROFILE"/>
<xsl:text>; </xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</em>. </p>
<a name="matrix"/>
<h2>2. Test Matrix </h2>
<p> Two basic types of test are presented here. These are
respectively <em><a href="#binary">Binary Tests</a></em>
and <em><a href="#output">Output Tests</a></em>. </p>
<a name="binary"/>
<h3>2.1 Binary Tests </h3>
<p> <em>Binary</em> conformance tests are documents which
are grouped into one of four categories. Given a document
in a given category, each kind of XML parser must treat it
consistently and either accept it (a <em>positive test</em>)
or reject it (a <em>negative test</em>). It is in that sense
that the tests are termed "binary". The XML 1.0 (Second Edition) Recommendation
talks in terms of two types of XML processor:
<em>validating</em> ones, and <em>nonvalidating</em> ones.
There are two differences between these types of processors: </p>
<ol>
<li> Validating processors check special productions that
nonvalidating parsers don't, called <em>validity
constraints</em>. (Both must check a basic set of productions,
requiring XML documents to be <em>well formed</em>.) </li>
<li> Nonvalidating processors are permitted to not
include <em>external entities</em>, such as files with
text. Accordingly, they may not report errors which
would have been detected had those entities been read.</li>
</ol>
<p> There are two types of such entity, <em>parameter
entities</em> holding definitions which affect validation
and other processing; and <em>general entities</em> which
hold marked up text. It will be appreciated that there are
then five kinds of XML processor: validating processors,
and four kinds of nonvalidating processor based on the
combinations of external entity which they include.</p>

<p> At this time, the XML community primarily uses parsers
which are in the rightmost two columns of this table, calling
them <em>Well Formed XML Parsers</em> (or "WF Parsers") and
<em>Validating XML Parsers</em>. A second test matrix
could be defined to address the variations in the types of
of XML processor which do not read all external entities.
That additional matrix is not provided here at this time. </p>
<a name="output"/>
<h3>2.2 Output Tests</h3>
<p> The XML 1.0 (Second Edition) Recommendation places a number of requirements
on XML processors, to ensure that they report information to
applications as needed. Such requirements are testable.
Validating processors are required to report slightly more
information than nonvalidating ones, so some tests will
require separate output files. Some of the information that
must be reported will not be reportable without reading all
the external entities in a particular test. Many of the tests for
valid documents are paired with an output file as the canonical
representation of the input file, to ensure that the XML
processor provides the correct information. </p>
<a name="listings"/>
<h2>3. Test Case Descriptions</h2>
<p> This section of this report contains descriptions of test
cases, each of which fits into the categories noted above.
Each test case includes a document of one of the types in the
binary test matrix above (e.g. valid or invalid documents).
</p>
<p> In some cases, an <a href="#output">output file </a>, as
described in Section 2.2, will also be associated with
a valid document, which is used for output testing. If such
a file exists, it will be noted at the end of the description
of the input document. </p>
<p> The description for each test case is presented as a two
part table. The right part describes what the test does.
This description is intended to have enough detail to evaluate
diagnostic messages. The left part includes: <ul>
<li> An entry describing the <em>Sections and/or Rules</em>
from the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006">
XML 1.0 (Second Edition) Recommendation</a> which this case excercises.</li>
<li> The unique <em>Test ID</em> within a given <em>Collection</em>
for this test. </li>
<li> The <em>Collection</em> from which this test originated.
Given the <em>Test ID</em> and the <em>Collection</em>, each
test can be uniquely identified.</li>
<li> Some tests may have a field identifying the kinds of
external <em>Entities</em> a nonvalidating processor must
include (parameter, general, or both) to be able to
detect any errors in that test case. </li>
</ul></p>
<a name="valid"/>
<h3>3.1 Valid XML Documents</h3>
<p> All conforming <em> XML 1.0 Processors </em> are
<b>required</b> to accept valid documents, reporting no
errors. In this section of this test report are found
descriptions of test cases which fit into this category. </p>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//TEST[@TYPE='valid']">
<xsl:sort select="@SECTIONS"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
<a name="invalid"/>
<h3>3.2 Invalid XML Documents</h3>
<p> All conforming XML 1.0 <em> Validating Processors </em>
are <b>required</b> to report recoverable errors in the case
of documents which are <em>Invalid</em>. Such errors are
violations of some <em>validity constraint (VC)</em>. </p>
<p> If a validating processor does not report an error when
given one of these test cases, or if the error reported is
a fatal error, it is not conformant. If the error reported
does not correspond to the problem listed in this test
description, that could also be a conformance problem; it
might instead be a faulty diagnostic. </p>
<p> All conforming XML 1.0 <em> Nonvalidating Processors </em>
should accept these documents, reporting no errors. </p>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//TEST[@TYPE='invalid']">
<xsl:sort select="@SECTIONS"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
<a name="not-wf"/>
<h3>3.3 Documents that are Not Well Formed</h3>
<p> All conforming XML 1.0 Processors are <b>required</b> to
report fatal errors in the case of documents which are not
<em>Well Formed</em>. Such errors are basically of two types:
<em>(a)</em> the document violates the XML grammar; or else
<em>(b)</em> it violates a <em>well formedness constraint
(WFC)</em>. There is a single <em>exception to that
requirement</em>: nonvalidating processors which do not read
certain types of external entities are not required to detect
(and hence report) these errors. </p>
<p> If a processor does not report a fatal error when given
one of these test cases, it is not conformant. If the error
reported does not correspond to the problem listed in this
test description, that could also be a conformance problem;
it might instead be a faulty diagnostic. </p>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//TEST[@TYPE='not-wf']">
<xsl:sort select="@SECTIONS"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>
<a name="error"/>
<h3>3.4 XML Documents with Optional Errors</h3>
<p> Conforming XML 1.0 Processors are permitted to ignore
certain errors, or to report them at user option. In this
section of this test report are found descriptions of
test cases which fit into this category. </p>
<p> Processor behavior on such test cases does not affect
conformance to the XML 1.0 (Second Edition) Recommendation, except as noted. </p>
<xsl:apply-templates select="//TEST[@TYPE='error']">
<xsl:sort select="@SECTIONS"/>
