This month's topic featured a discussion of the DOM Test Suite (DOM TS), one of the first W3C test suites to incorporate automation. Dimitris Dimitriadis presented an overview of the methodology, including the goals in building the automated test generation techniuqes and the degree to which it met these goals. He also described the DOM TS architecture, its capabilities and limitations, and the potential to generalize this framework beyond DOM. Read the final report or visit theDOM TS page for more details.
