testing

value-class-pattern date and time parsing:

• YYYY-MM-DD
• 12am
• 12pm
• hCalendar dtend implied date

in an hCalendar event.

markup pattern

Here is the markup pattern fragment (escaped, and with abstract not real values) that is being tested:

<span class="dtstart">
 <span class="value">YYYY-MM-DD</span> 
 from
 <span class="value">12am</span>
</span>
to
<span class="dtend">
 <span class="value">12pm</span>
</span>

test

hCalendar test in actual markup on the page (view or edit source to see actual hCalendar markup)

When

2009-06-26 from 12am to 12pm

What

first half of the day before the microformats.org 4th birthday party

expected iCalendar output

Here is the expected iCalendar output, omitting optional "X-" properties, and implementation specific "PRODID" property:

BEGIN:VCALENDAR
VERSION:2.0
METHOD:PUBLISH
CALSCALE:GREGORIAN
BEGIN:VEVENT
SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en;CHARSET=utf-8:first half of the day before the microformats.org 4th birthday party!
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090626T000000
DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090626T120000
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR

The key lines that an hCalendar to iCalendar converter must match in order to pass this test:

DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090626T000000
DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20090626T120000

Acceptable variant:

DTSTART:20090626T000000
DTEND:20090626T120000

results
