Anyone is welcome to submit new tests to +this collection. If you do, please create the tests following the guidelines +below. Then submit them as a pull request so they can be evaluated + +Structure +--------- + +Tests are organized by major section of the Annotation Model specification. The +folders associated with these are: + +* annotations +* bodiesTargets +* collections +* specificResources + * selectors + * states + +Within these folders, special files ending with the suffix ".test" provide the source +for the test as a set of declarative assertions about the required shape of the conforming +JSON object. These files are transformed using a test generation tool into ".html" files +that are then accessed by the Web Platform Test framework. + +There are a few other folders that provide supporting materials for the tests: + +* common - assertionObjects, conditionObjects, and other supporting materials +* definitions - JSON Schema definitions that can be referenced +* scripts - JavaScript that are included by tests +* tools - supporting scripts and files + +NOTE: The files in the definitions folder are expected to be JSON Schema +definitions - basically commonly used concepts that are referenced by other JSON +Schema files in the system. All of these 'definitions' are preloaded by the +system before any other parts of a test are processed. + +Test Cases +---------- + +Each test is expressed as a simple (or complex) requirement in a test file. +For each section of the document, the requirement is represented as a structure +that describes the nature of the test, and then includes or references minimal +JSON Schema that test the assertions implied by the requirement. + +The structure of a test case is defined using a [JSON-LD +Context](JSONtest-v1.jsonld). That context defines the following terms: + +|Keyword | Values | Meaning +|---------------|-----------------|--------- +|name | string | The name of this test for display purposes +|description | string | A long self-describing paragraph that explains the purpose of the test and the expected input +|ref | URI | An optional reference to the portion of the specification to which the test relates +|testType | `automated`, `manual`, `ref` | The type of test - this informs [WPT](https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests) how the test should be controlled and presented +|skipFailures | list of strings | An optional list of assertionType values that, if present, should have their test skipped if the result would be "unexpected". Defaults to the empty list. +|assertions | list of URI, List @@@ATRISK@@@, or AssertionObject | The ordered collection of tests the input should be run against. See [JSON Schema Usage](#jsonSchema) for the structure of the objects. URI is relative to the top level folder of the test collection if it has a slash; relative to the current directory if it does not. @@@@ATRISK@@@@ Lists can be nested to define groups of sub-tests. Assertions / groups can be conditionally skipped. See [Assertion Lists](#assertionLists) for more details. +|content | URI or object | An object containing content to be checked against the referenced assertions, or a URI from which to retrieve that content + +Each test case has a suffix of `.test` and a shape like: + +<pre> +{ + "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/JSONtest-v1.jsonld", + "name": "Verify annotation conforms to the model", + "description": "Supply an example annotation that conforms to the basic structure.", + "ref": "https://www.w3.org/TR/annotation-model/#model", + "testType": "manual", + "assertions": [ + "common/has_context.json", + "common/has_id.json", + { + "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", + "title": "Verify annotation has target", + "assertionType": "must", + "expectedResult": "valid", + "errorMessage": "The object was missing a required 'target' property", + "type": "object", + "properties": { + "target": { + "anyOf": [ + { + "type": "string" + }, + { + "type": "array", + "anyOf": [ + { + "type": "string" + } + ] + } + ], + "not": {"type": "object"} + } + }, + "required": ["target"] + } + ] +} +</pre> + +External references are used when the "assertion" is a common one that needs to +be checked on many different test cases (e.g., that there is an @context in the +supplied annotation). + +NOTE: The title property of an assertionObject can contain markdown. This can +help improve readability of the rendered assertions and debugging output. + +NOTE: The content property does not yet have a defined use. One potential use would +be to act as a pointer to a URI that can supply annotations from an implementation. +In that case the URI would take a parameter with the test name as a way of telling +the end point what test is running so it can deliver the right content. + +### <a id="assertionLists">Assertion Lists</a> ### + +The `assertion` list is an ordered list of assertions that will be evaluated +against the submitted content. The list is *required*, and MUST have at least +one entry. Entries in the list have the following types: + +* AssertionObject + +An in-line Object as defined in the section [Assertion +Objects](#assertionObjects). +* URI + +A relative or absolute URI that references a AssertionObject in a .json file. +If the URI is relative but contains no slashes, then it is considered to be +in the current directory. If the URI is relative, contains slashes, but +**does not start with a slash** then it is considered relative to the top of +the tree of the current test collection (e.g., `annotation-model`). +* List @@@ATRISK@@@ + +A nested Assertion List. While nested Assertion Lists are optional, if one +is present it MUST have at least one entry. Entries are as in this list. +Assertion Lists can be nested to any depth (but don't do that - it would be +too hard to maintain). + + +<a id="assertionObjects">Assertion Objects</a> +----------------- + +In this collection of tests, Assertion Objects can be contained inline in the +`.test` files or contained in external files with the suffix `.json`. The +vocabularly and structure is as defined in [JSON Schema +v4](http://json-schema.org/documentation.html) augmented with some additional +properties defined in this section. + +In general each JSON Schema definition provided in this test suite should be as +minimal as possible. This promotes clarity and increases the likelihood that +it is correct. While it is ---possible--- to create JSON Schema files that +enforce many different requirements on a data model, it increases the +complexity and can also reduce the atomicity of tests / sub-tests (because a + test ends up testing more than one thing). Please try to avoid creating +complex JSON Schema. (A notable exception is the situation where multiple + properties of a structure are interdependent.) + +Tools such as [the JSON Schema Creator](http://jsonschema.net/) may be helpful +in creating schema snippets that can be integrated into JSONtest Assertion +Objects. Remember that the JSON Schema you create should be as permissive as +possible to address the various shapes that a give property might take (e.g., a + 'foo' might be a string or an object that contains sub-properties that express + the string, or an array of 1 or more objects with those sub-properties). + +In addition to the validation keys defined in JSON Schema v4, Schema files in +this collection are also permitted to use the following keywords: + +|Keyword | Values | Meaning | +|---------------|-----------------|---------| +|onUnexpectedResult | `failAndContinue`, `failAndSkip`, `failAndAbort`, `passAndContinue`, `passAndSkip`, `passAndAbort` | Action to take when the result is not as expected. Default is `failAndContinue` | +|assertionType | `must`, `may`, `should` | Informs the system about the severity of a failure. The default is `must` | +|assertionFile | URI | An external file that contains an assertion SCHEMA. When this value is supplied, and local properties will override the ones loaded from the external file. +|errorMessage | string | A human readable explanation of what it means if the test fails. | +|expectedResult | `valid`, `invalid` | Tells the framework whether validating against this schema is expected to succeed or fail. The default is `valid` | + + +### Example Assertion Object ### + +<pre> +{ + "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", + "title": "Verify annotation has @context", + "type": "object", + "expectedResult" : "valid", + "properties": { + "@context": { + "anyOf": [ + { + "type": "string" + }, + { + "type": "array", + "anyOf": [ + { + "type": "string" + } + ] + } + ], + "not": {"type": "object"} + } + }, + "required": ["@context"] +} +</pre> + +Note that in the case where a feature is *optional* the JSON Schema MUST be +crafted such that if the attribute is permitted to be missing from the content +(so that the result is `true`), but when the attribute is present in the +content it conforms to any requirements. + + + +<a id="conditionObjects">Condition Objects</a> +----------------- + +A Condition Object is a sub-class of an Assertion Object. It allows the +specification of the evaluation strategy for the assertions referenced by the +object. An object is a Condition Object IFF it has a `assertions` property. In +this case, there MUST NOT be an `assertionFile` property. + + +|Keyword | Values | Meaning | +|---------------|-----------------|---------| +|compareWith | `and`, `or` | How should the result of any referenced assertions be compared. Defaults to `and`. Note that this implies there is also an assertions property with a nested list of assertions to compare. | +|assertions | a list of assertions as in a Test Case above. This is required if there is a compareWith property | + + +An example of a test that would pass if there were an `@context` OR there were an `@id`: + +<pre> +{ + "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/JSONtest-v1.jsonld", + "name": "A test that has an 'or' clause", + "description": "A complex test that uses or-ing among a list of assertions", + "ref": "https://www.w3.org/TR/annotation-model/#model", + "testType": "manual", + "assertions": [ + { "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", + "title": "must have context or id", + "description": "A more complex example that allows one of many options to pass", + "assertions": [ + { "title": "Condition Object", + "description": "A pseudo-test that will get a result from the aggregate of its children", + "assertionType": "must", + "expectedResult": "valid", + "errorMessage": "Error: None of the various options were present", + "compareWith": "or", + "assertions": [ + "common/has_context.json", + "common/has_id.json" + ] + } + ] + } + ] +} +</pre> + + +Command Line Tools +------------------ + +### Building the Test Files ### + +The actual .html test case files are generated using the script +tools/make_tests.py. This script will search the directory heriarchy looking for +files ending on `.test` and creating `.html` files from them using the template in +the tools folder. If you want to regenerate the examples too, supply the +`--examples` option to the script. + +Note that when submitting tests to the repository, the `.html` versions must be +included. + +### Testing the Tests ### + +### Driving Tests with Input Files ### + +Complex Examples +---------------- + +This section is a collection of more complex examples to illustrate the +expressive power of the [Assertion List](#assertionLists) structure. These can +be used as templates for creating actual `.test` files. + +### Including and Overriding an Assertion ### + +Assertions can be contained in external `.json` files. It is possible for an +object in an Assertion List to include the external file and override one or +more of its properties: + +<pre> +{ + "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/JSONtest-v1.jsonld", + "name": "Permit no target property", + "description": "Ensure there is no 'target' property when there is a 'randomName' property in the Annotation", + "assertions": [ + { + "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", + "title": "Verify annotation has randomName", + "type": "object", + "properties": { + "randomName": { + "type": "string" + } + }, + "required": ["randomName"] + }, + { "assertionFile" : "common/target.json", + "title" : "Require target to be missing", + "expectedResult" : "invalid", + "errorMessage" : "The target MUST not be present when 'randomName' is also present", + } + ] +} +</pre> + +### Nested Assertion Collections with Skip ### + +Assertion Lists can be nested within Assertion Lists. This feature, combined +with the `onUnexpectedResult` property, makes it possible to skip a collection +of tests when an assertion in the list is not satisfied: + +<pre> +{ + "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/JSONtest-v1.jsonld", + "name": "If there is no 'target' property, skip some tests", + "description": "When 'target' is not present, other properties related to 'target' are not required", + "assertions": [ + "common/context.json", + [ + { "assertionFile" : "common/target.json", + "errorMessage" : "Target was not present so skip the rest of this section", + "onUnexpectedResult" : "failAndSkip" + }, + "sometest.json", + "sometest2.json", + "sometest3.json" + ] + ] +} ; +</pre> + +### Assertion that finds a specific @context Value ### + +Sometimes you want a property to be flexible, but to have one and only one of a +specific value. This is especially true with, for example, @context in JSON-LD. +One way you might do this is: + +<pre> +{ + "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", + "title": "Verify a specific @context", + "type": "object", + "expectedResult" : "valid", + "properties": { + "@context": { + "anyOf": [ + { + "type": "string" + "enum": [ "http://www.w3.org/ns/anno.jsonld" ] + }, + { + "type": "array", + "minitems": "1", + "uniqueItems": true, + "additionalItems": true, + "items" : [ + { "type": "string", + "enum": [ "http://www.w3.org/ns/anno.jsonld" ] + } + ] + } + ], + "not": {"type": "object"} + } + }, + "required": ["@context"] +} + +</pre> |
