Abstract

This Test Suite has been designed primarily to prove implementability of the CSS3 Paged Media specification.

It is also intended to help implementers evaluate conformance to CSS3 Paged Media. It draws from the CSS 2.1 test suite, and adds tests for new properties defined by CSS3 Paged Media.

Status of the test suite

Development of the test suite for the CSS3 Paged Media specification is ongoing. This version contains the latest versions of all current tests.  Coverage at this point is probably roughly 30%.

Overview of the test suite

CSS3 Paged Media depends on the CSS 2.1 specification for the normative definition of all underlying requirements (e.g., syntax, the cascade, inheritance, etc).  It has no dependencies on other CSS3 modules.

  1. CSS 2.1
  2. CSS3 Paged Media

Tests utilized by this suite are drawn from two different locations:

  1. XHTML tests from the CSS 2.1 test suite.
  2. Tests from the CSS3 Page test suite directory.

Most of these tests are designed to be printed, and include the test name and page numbers in headers.  For additional background, including authoring guidelines and test templates, see the CSS testsuite documentation and the CSS Test Wiki.

The tests themselves are composed as XHTML 1.1 documents.

For each feature, there will be at least one page which tests the feature in various ways, using XHTML markup. The test pages are broken out into a number of sections which reflect the structure of the CSS3 Paged Media specification itself.

The CSS3 Paged Media Test Suite
