ISSUE-58: Improve Web Platform Consistency
Improve Web Platform Consistency
- State:
- CLOSED
- Product:
- testing
- Raised by:
- Mark Vickers
- Opened on:
- 2013-03-27
- Description:
- Description:
- Provide comprehensive test suites for HTML5 and related specifications to support fully portable web applications.
Motivation:
- We need to maintain a consistent web app platform across all browsers and devices.
- The cost of Web App support across browsers is still high. Each app company duplicates this cost, adding up to a huge expenditure.
- The number of browsers and devices continues to increase.
- Existing limited tests are focused on specification completion, not platform verification
Dependencies:
- New tests, tests frameworks and client test support will be needed.
What needs to be standardized:
- The user agent may need to standardize additional APIs for test hooks.
- W3C should provide websites (webplatform.org?) and/or workshops to get requirements, priorities and bugs from the app community and library authors. - Related Actions Items:
- No related actions
