Review: test suite creation and maintenance process

[Ming Fei Jia <jiamingf@cn.ibm.com>]

Dear TC members,

According to last 2 TC meetings discussion, I draft the process about how TC create and maitain test suites on the wiki:
http://wiki.oasis-open.org/oic/TestSuiteCMProcess

For your review. It is still in very draft status, you will be very appreciated if any remarks, comments or suggetions.

Also I know the process still depends on several items to be done in parallel:
(1) Define the granularity of each test document
(2) Define TC subversion repository structure
(3) Discuss/Approve test metadata proposal submitted by Bart(http://wiki.oasis-open.org/oic/TestScenario/Metadata)
(4) Deploy some utility to submit test cases, e.g. web form to fill test meta data, attach test document.
(5) Any others I ignored

I think each item of the above need to be discussed and get agreement among TC members. So still we have some gap toward the point that we can actually start to contribute the test suites. I maybe send other mails to discuss the above items separately if necessary.

Hope everyone having a great day!

Best Regards,
