Subject: [xacml-comment] 12/6/02 Updated Conformance Test Suite


An updated Conformance Test Suite has just been e-mailed to
Michiharu Kudo and to implementors who have requested direct
mailings.  Michiharu has been requested to post this update to
the XACML TC web page.  If anyone else who would like a copy
e-mailed directly, please let me know.

To the best of my knowledge and record-keeping, this suite
contains fixes to all problems that have been reported to the
xacml-comment@lists.oasis-open.org mailing list up through
message
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml-comment/200212/msg00035.html
All files have been passed through a validating parser.

This suite also includes changes required by the type-checking
issue being discussed on the xacml@lists.oasis-open.org mailing
list.  These changes ensure that only the policy files that are
testing for syntax or type errors have a syntax or type error.
Other files were modified where necessary to produce an
Indeterminate result using other means.  In the course of making
the checks for this, I noticed a 3 cases among the D tests listed
below where a rule that was supposed to return Indeterminate was
actually returning NotApplicable.  These have been fixed to
return Indeterminate.

Specific changes:
IIA004Special.txt - instructions added, explaining that certain
  implementations do not need to return the Response indicated.
IIC003Special.txt - instructions added, explaining that certain
  implementations do not need to return the Response indicated.
IIC012Response.xml - changed Decision from "syntax-error" to
  "processing-error".  This is a type checking error, not an XML
  syntax error.
IIC012Special.txt - instructions added, explaining that certain
  implementations do not need to return the Response indicated.
IIC014Special.txt - instructions added, explaining that certain
  implementations do not need to return the Response indicated.
IID006Policy.xml - add 'MustBePresent="true" to
  SubjectAttributeDesignator in rule3 to produce intended
  INDETERMINATE result.
IID010Policy.xml - changed description of rule3 to say "NOT
  APPLICABLE" rather than "INDETERMINATE".  Rule itself is the
  same.
IID018Policy.xml - add "MustBePresent" to rule3 in order to make
  the result "INDETERMINATE" as intended.
IID022Policy.xml - add "MustBePresent" to rule3 in order to make
  the result "INDETERMINATE" as intended.

The StatusCode Value values in the Response.xml files that I
chose are my best guess at the intention of the TC.  Feel free to
post objections to my choices to the
xacml-comment@lists.oasis-open.org list.

Please continue to report any errors you find in these tests to
xacml-comment@lists.oasis-open.org
