A part of it is interest, too. Simply because there is a exceedingly small number of vendors, building comprehensive test suites that benefit newcomers is just not in most organizations' best interests.
There actually are some partial tests from the W3C regarding basic web technologies, but they're not really automated ones in the way you'd think.
- shawnz 5y agoI don't think the other poster was talking about automated tests for conformance to the specification, just basic unit tests indicating that the feature works at all by any reasonable definition.
- lostmsu 5y agoThat kind of an issue is generally tested against by integration tests. Depending on the root cause unit tests for the entry point code might not have caught it.
- shawnz 5y agoYou are right, an integration test would probably be better for demonstrating that this feature works. I only mean to say that you don't need a whole compliance testing suite to catch a major bug like this.
