1. General Comments

After introductions there were general discussions about testing and requirements for suites. The Open Source tool, iCal 4J, does have a parser so we are considering pointing people at already-developed implementations for testing iCalendar streams.

We talked about the concept of using a public CALDAV server to help test calendar objects. This server and suite would need to do the following tasks: Import events, do some actions, export and compare. It would then present the final state to the tester. A good parser will test and decompile into components.

The purpose of this test event was to test CALDAV clients and servers and iCalendar implementations. Exhibit A are the test scenarios used for iCalendar testing. All products tested during this event are “not shipping application.” Therefore, in this pubic document, we do not explicitly name products or note how each product works. Comments are general and generic. To help differentiate notes, we have named the participants as Vendor one, Vendor two, Vendor three, Vendor four, Vendor five, Vendor six and Vendor 7.
