There are two problems with this: (1) implementations aren't required to support this (2) this makes the test suite depend on external resources 128499 1 mike 2017-03-23 20:02:02 +0000 Those criticisms are valid, but can you think of any other way of constructing a test case that demonstrates that the result is stable when the contents of the relevant resource are constantly changing? 128500 2 josh.spiegel 2017-03-23 20:12:34 +0000 No, unfortunately I can not. I suppose this may be yet another untestable aspect of our specifications. 128501 3 josh.spiegel 2017-03-23 20:18:10 +0000 If you really want to keep it, can you put it under a feature flag? I don't want my test harness to depend on an internet connection. 128642 4 mike 2017-06-14 09:18:23 +0000 The WG agreed to add a new feature flag and this has been done. <dependencies> <dependency type="feature" name="remote_http"/> </dependencies> 128959 5 christian.gruen 2017-11-06 16:19:46 +0000 This test case may return »This application is temporarily over its serving quota.
