Sounds reasonable.

Jacques,    My one suggestion is: Instead of  using

to the Mute action of the Test Service associated with the Response URL.  ...which implies interop testing only (service mode), and not also conformance testing (connection mode)

 we use 

with a Mute action element,  to the test component (Test Service or Driver)  associated with the Response URL. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Subject: [ebxml-iic] comments on TestFmwk, response.

 FYI, comments from Serm (NIST), on some editorial ambiguities.
I have tried to adress these in the following attached update of Test Framework  ("rev1", see the diff in red), please review.

NOTE: the approved version of Test Framework (updated here) has not been posted yet, will be very soon.
(Monica: that is the version you asked for).

Subject: possible confusion in the test framework
In section 3.2.4.2 - Test Service Actions, the term 'requestor' and 'requestor Test Service' has been used in several places (look in the response destination) which I am sure if applies in all cases. To my understanding it should be 'response URL'.

<Jacques> agree "requestor" is ambiguous (a remnant of some previous sections we removed on "requestor/responder"). Response messages are always sent to response URL, as defined in 3.2.3., so we should make that more explicit.

I think the simplest reason is the requestor could be either Test Driver or Test Service. If the requester is Test Driver and it is conformance testing, then response destination is Test Driver. If the requester is Test Driver and it is interop testing, then response destination is another Test Service. So response URL should always be used.

On line 703-704, "The action responds with a notification message to the requestor ....". This confused me. First, "Notification" was used for reporting (to the test driver). Then it has the word 'requestor'. Should the sentence be "The action responds to the ResponseURL about ...."?

<Jacques> Right. Bad wording. I think we should ban "requestor" from all this section, as this is also too restrictive on the possible test harness configurations.

Or I am missing something :).
