testing
The value-dt-test-abbr-YYYY-MM-DD--HH-MM test demonstrate the concatenation of abbr title attribute and the text from a span element to create one datetime value:
value-class-pattern date and time parsing:
- YYYY-MM-DD in
abbrelementtitleattribute, with locale/language-specific contents - HH:MM
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">
<abbr class="value" title="YYYY-MM-DD">this day of the week</abbr>
at <span class="value">HH:MM</span>
</span>
test
hCalendar test in actual markup on the page (view or edit source to see actual hCalendar markup)
The weekly dinner will be on this Tuesday at 18:30
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:weekly dinner
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20080624T183000
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR
The key line that an hCalendar to iCalendar converter must match in order to pass this test:
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20080624T183000
Acceptable variant:
DTSTART:20080624T183000
Asserts
| Test | Result | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| vevent[0].dtstart | IsEqualToISODate("2008-06-24T18:30") | With the value class pattern the results should contain a time |
