Hi all,
are there any (SUnit) test cases for XML out there? I used to test Yax with a bunch of test files from James Clark's test suite (http://www.squeaklet.com/Yax/xmltest.zip), but never got around to create a real test suite out of it. As far as I can tell Yax handles a lot of the semi-validating stuff (extending entities, namespaces, system and public ids and such) but this impression is more based on "anecdotal" testing ;-)
A test suite would give as an objective measure of what works with which parser and would provide a list of points to work on.
Oh, and benchmarks would be great, although Shakespeare (http://www.ibiblio.org/xml/examples/shakespeare/) provides nice lengthy files :-)

The VWXML parser has SUnit tests for XML. It should be with teh Squeak version of the parser.

Yes.

Roger Whitney created a lovely test suite using the Clark/Oasis stuff. It's available for Squeak and works with the VWXML parser. You'll have to adapt it to your parser.
The code is available: http://monkeyfist.com/downloads/smalltalk/squeak/cst/xmlparser/
In the comment for XMLParserTests, there are links to the test files.

Yes, it was great when I was porting the VWXML parser. It passes a *large* number of these tests.

Yay Roger!

I have problems running these tests. There are some DNU (e.g. OrderedCollection contains:). Is there a newer/different version of the VW port and the test suites? I got the one linked from the swiki.
I'm using an updated 3.2 image.
Thanks
