First Release of the W3C XML Schema Test Collection

Subject:   First Release of the W3C XML Schema Test Collection

We're pleased to announce the first public release of the W3C XML Schema Test Collection, made possible by a substantial contribution of tests from Microsoft. Both positive and negative expected outcomes are tested with respect to a range of core XML Schema features.

You can find the current state of this release at:

      http://www.w3.org/2001/05/xmlschema-test-collection/results-master.html.

The home page for the W3C XML Schema Test Collection is at:

     http://www.w3.org/2001/05/xmlschema-test-collection/

In keeping with our overall policy, we present the tests in a standard form which tabulates, without ratifying, the test materials, a brief description, and the outcomes for each one expected by the contributor. We also include the first of what we hope will be many outcome tabulations for a publically available XML Schema processor.

The test materials are available for download as a single package, see the home page for a pointer.

We already have a further contribution in hand, from NIST, which will be released shortly, and would very much welcome contributions from other sources! We're also working to make it easy to contribute results from other available processors.
