Subject: RE: [sca-assembly] Concrete Exit Criteria for the SCA Assembly TC -Proposal
Jim, I think you are confusing the normative-ness of the test suite with TC exit criteria. You are correct that to claim conformance you don’t have to pass the TC’s test suite, but that is different from the TC saying that in order to progress the spec to Committee Specification/OASIS Standard we want two
implementations passing the TC’s test suite. Martin. From: Jim Marino [mailto:jim.marino@gmail.com] Hi, The first bullet makes sense to me. Concerning the second, my understanding is the TC Test Suite is not normative and the only thing required for conformance is for the entity responsible for a particular runtime to declare that it adheres to the normative portions of the Assembly Specification. In other words, it should be valid for a runtime to claim conformance that supplies its own test suite, which may or may not be based on the TC one. This essentially goes back to using the "court of public opinion" to judge conformance claims as opposed to something akin to a TCK. Jim On Feb 18, 2011, at 6:19 AM, Mike Edwards wrote:
