W3C Graphics SVG

W3C Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) Test Suite Overview

Welcome to the current releases of the SVG Full and SVG Mobile Test Suites. These tests, and the corresponding implementation reports are intended not to test implementations, but rather the interoperable implementability of the specification itself. However, it can be used by implementors to test their own conformance, or by consumers to assess the suitability of any given implementation.

These tests are created according to the W3C Test Development FAQ in general, and the SVG Test Suite Manual in particular. As described in the All tests have been submitted under the Policies for Contribution of Test Cases to W3C, copyright and test suite distribution are governed by the W3C Document License and the W3C Member agreement. This policy both promotes the distribution of a test suite as it was agreed upon within W3C and protects the test suite from unapproved modifications that might harm interoperability.

Any questions or comments about these tests, including bug reports, can be filed with the SVG WG in the manner described on the SVG Feedback Page.

SVG 1.2 Tiny Test Suite

Beta3, 12 Sept 2008

This is the third beta release of the SVG 1.2 Tiny Test Suite. This includes 495 approved tests, most with many sub-tests. This is a subset of the 578 tests currently under development. Please see the SVG Working Group wiki for details of previous releases and for the current state of work.

Tests are available with a harness in HTML:

SVG 1.2 Tiny Implementation Report

Additionally, we have an interim implementation report available. This was based on the The 7 September 2007 beta release of the SVG 1.2 Tiny Test Suite includes a total of 408 tests. This will be superceded by the official implementation report after the publication of the final test suite. An SVG Tiny 1.2 test fest will be held Sept 29 - Oct 2, 2008 in Ottawa, Canada.

SVG 1.1 Test Suite

13 Dec 2006

The 13 December 2006 release of SVG 1.1 and SVG Mobile Test Suite includes a total of 275 tests, most with numerous subtests.

The same tests are available with a variety of test harnesses, as follows:

SVG 1.1 Implementation Report

There is a implementation report available for SVG 1.1.

Note that this is not a comprehensive report, and documents a moment in time when SVG 1.1 was exiting Candidate Recommendation. It does not reflect the current state of implementations; since this report was published, there has been substantial implementation by Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Safari.

For a good overview of the later developent of the SVG 1.1 implementations against this test suite, please see the codedread SVG 1.1 support chart by Jeff Schiller.
