This document describes the results of particular SVG implementations tested against the SVG Conformance Test Suite. The goal is to demonstrate that every part of the SVG Candidate Recommendation specification can be implemented, as required by the SVG Candidate Recommendation exit criteria. For this, each BE test must be passed by at least one implementation.
This is not an exhaustive test of all SVG implementations; the implementations listed here are the ones that were readily available at the time of conformance testing. This is also not a formal test, and thus does not rank the implementations. The purpose is purely to show that the SVG specification can be and has been implemented, and to demonstrate a good degree of interoperability between implementations.
The following table lists the implementations that were tested as well as the particular version of each implementation. You are suggested to check the implementation sites for the latest conformance results.
