New Version Available
The RDF Test Curation Community Group is maintaining updates to important test suites, including for N-Triples. The new tests are available at http://w3c.github.io/rdf-tests/ntriples/ along with an updated Implementation Report.
Tests should be run using the test manifests defined in the Test Manifests Section.
Reports should be submitted in Turtle format to public-rdf-comments@w3.org
and include an earl:Assertion
for each test, referencing the test resource from the associated manifest
and the test subject being reported upon. An example test entry is be the following:
[ a earl:Assertion;
earl:assertedBy <http://greggkellogg.net/foaf#me>;
earl:subject <http://rubygems.org/gems/rdf>;
earl:test <http://www.w3.org/2013/N-TriplesTests/manifest.ttl#nt-syntax-file-01>;
earl:result [
a earl:TestResult;
earl:outcome earl:passed;
dc:date "2013-02-22T15:12:30-08:00"^^xsd:dateTime];
earl:mode earl:automatic ] .
The Test Subject should be defined as a doap:Project, including the name,
homepage and developer(s) of the software (see [DOAP]). Optionally, including the
project description and programming language. An example test subject description is the following:
<> foaf:primaryTopic <http://rubygems.org/gems/rdf>
dc:issued "2013-02-22T15:12:30-08:00"^^xsd:dateTime ;
foaf:maker <http://greggkellogg.net/foaf#me> .
<http://rubygems.org/gems/rdf> a doap:Project, earl:TestSubject, earl:Software ;
doap:name "RDF.rb" ;
doap:homepage <http://rubygems.org/gems/rdf> ;
doap:license <http://creativecommons.org/licenses/publicdomain/> ;
doap:description "RDF.rb is a pure-Ruby library for working with Resource Description Framework (RDF) data."@en ;
doap:developer <http://ar.to/#self>, <http://bhuga.net/#ben>, <http://greggkellogg.net/foaf#me> ;
doap:maintainer <http://ar.to/#self>, <http://bhuga.net/#ben>, <http://greggkellogg.net/foaf#me> ;
doap:documenter <http://ar.to/#self>, <http://bhuga.net/#ben>, <http://greggkellogg.net/foaf#me> ;
foaf:maker <http://ar.to/#self> ;
dc:creator <http://ar.to/#self> .
The software developer, either an organization or one or more individuals SHOULD be
referenced from doap:developer using [FOAF]. For example:
<http://greggkellogg.net/foaf#me> a foaf:Person, earl:Assertor;
foaf:name "Gregg Kellogg";
foaf:title "Implementor";
foaf:homepage <http://greggkellogg.net/> .
