newest tests

From test-suite:

previous mercurial tests

The hcard and hcalendar tests collection was announced in a Jun 7 2006 message from RyanKing.

They are published at http://microformats.org/tests/hcard/. Each test has an HTML file to parse and a vCard file which describes the hCard data contained in the HTML file.

It's managed in an hg repository. hg/mercurial is a distributed revision control system. It can be a little tricky to unlearn cvs habits; there are some good diagrams in slides from a 19 Jun talk that Bryan O'Sullivan gave at google. The mercurial presentations page also has a link to a 50 minute video.

An x2v hg repository holds code that, by design, passes the tests. x2v-issues is a place to track issues in that code.

even older external tests

These external tests have been obsoleted by the above test suites.

DanConnolly is working on hcardTest.html; the current version is always available. (I dunno why cvsweb uses the ordinary looing URL for the changelog rather than the current version.)

MarkPilgrim maintains a series of hCard tests for use with his hCard parser

The hCard specification is a work in progress. As additional aspects are discussed, understood, and written, they will be added. These thoughts, issues, and questions are kept in separate pages.
