An updated XACML 1.0 Conformance Test Suite has just been e-mailed to Michiharu Kudo and to implementors who have requested direct mailings. Michiharu has been requested to post this update to the XACML TC web page. If anyone else would like a copy e-mailed directly, please let me know. The zip file is quite large, but it can also take several days for the TC Web site to be updated. This version resolves all errors reported during the public review period for the specification. The changes from the previous (12/6/02) version are: IIA002Special.txt - fixed a misspelling; used better grammar IIA004Special.txt - slightly modified wording per Comment#68: If an initial policy with invalid... ^^^^^^^ added If ...CAN NEVER attempt to evaluate an initial policy ^^^^^^^ added IIB045Policy.xml - added a second resource to the Target so that this will perform the intended test IIC003Special.txt - see IIA004Special.txt IIC012Special.txt - see IIA004Special.txt IIC014Special.txt - see IIA004Special.txt IIC051Policy.xml - changed the base64Binary AttributeValue to a valid value that still does not match the Request value. IIC051Request.xml - changed the base64Binary AttributeValue to a valid value that still does not match the Policy value. The previous value was also valid, but I wanted to give credit to both commenters who supplied values for IIC051Policy.xml I know this is rather late to be making changes for anyone planning to attest to "successfully using." If the changes to II.B.45 or II.C.51 cause any implementer who is otherwise planning to attest to "successfully using" XACML by 13 December 2002 to fail, I suggest you send your attestation to the XACML TC Chairs anyway, with a note saying these late changes are the only tests you are failing. The other changes should not affect any implementation that was passing the previous set of tests. Please continue to report any errors you find in these tests to
