Looking for tests to verify a home made CSS compiler

Hi all,

I was searching for any standard ways to test a newly home grown CSS compiler. We know for sure we miss certain rules, but we would love to have some standard tests that tell us that we are missing following stuff with respect to CSS2, something on those lines. Any help in this direction would be great.

Thanks,
Gowtham

Hi Gowtham,

 

I would suggest to use the Microsoft test, which are organized by CSS (2.1) chapter.

When you pass the test from chapter 4, 5, 6 and 7 you have done a great job!

 

The test set can be found at:

If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact me.

 

Best Regards,

Robert Stam

Hi Robert,

Thanks for the reply. I think that is pretty versatile set of tests. If I understand correctly you want me to pick up all the css files and ask my compiler to compile, so that the rules not supported will be pointed out. Am I correct?

Secondly as a side note, is there anyways we can automate these tests? At this point it looks like human intervention is needed to go and validate each page?

Thanks,
Gowtham
