>&#13;		The XML parser of the Haskell XML Toolbox was elaborately tested with the XML Test Suites from the W3C [<SPAN
CLASS="citation"
><A
HREF="b2463.html#bib_xmlts"
><SPAN
CLASS="abbrev"
>WWW02</SPAN
></A
></SPAN
>]. If you want to run these checks on your own, you can use the tool <TT
CLASS="literal"
>RunTestCases</TT
> that is distributed with the Haskell XML Toolbox.
		</P
><P
>&#13;		First you have to download the test cases from the W3C [<SPAN
CLASS="citation"
><A
HREF="b2463.html#bib_xmlts"
><SPAN
CLASS="abbrev"
>WWW02</SPAN
></A
></SPAN
>] and extract them in an own directory. To test the XML parser with these test cases, you have to build the program <TT
CLASS="literal"
>RunTestCases</TT
>. Executing <TT
CLASS="literal"
>make RunTestCases</TT
> in the root directory of the Haskell XML Toolbox will compile this program.
		</P
><P
>&#13;		The XML Test Suites contain test cases from different organizations and people. <TT
CLASS="literal"
>RunTestCases</TT
> must be called with a test case description file as argument from the directories: <TT
CLASS="literal"
>ibm</TT
>, <TT
CLASS="literal"
>oasis</TT
>, <TT
CLASS="literal"
>sun</TT
> or <TT
CLASS="literal"
>xmltest</TT
>.
		</P
><P
>&#13;		Perhaps a dummy root node must be added to these files to form a valid XML document. <TT
CLASS="literal"
>RunTestCases</TT
> cannot process the root file that combines all theses description files.
		</P
><P
>&#13;		When being executed, <TT
CLASS="literal"
>RunTestCases</TT
> will ask what type of test shall be performed. The type entered must correspond to the tests listed in the test case description file. <TT
CLASS="function"
>RunTestCases</TT
> will only execute these test cases.
		</P
><P
>&#13;		If the option "show detailed information" is set, <TT
CLASS="literal"
>RunTestCases</TT
> will display the <TT
CLASS="literal"
>XmlTree</TT
> in addition if a test fails.
