55 <p>This document describes the use of <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/EARL10-Schema/">EARL</a> by the
56 <a href="http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/">RDF Data Access Working
57 Group</a>. The Working Group is using EARL to collect reports of implementations' experience
58 running the group's <a href="http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/tests/r2">test suite</a>.</p>

66 The
67 <a href="http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/">RDF Data Access Working
68 Group</a> (DAWG) uses a test-driven process.&nbsp; The
69 <a href="r2">test area</a> is a collection of
70 collection of the current test cases of the working group. </p>
71 <p>As one of the exit criteria to transition the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-sparql-query/">SPARQL Query Language</a> specification to
72 <a href="http://www.w3.org/2004/02/Process-20040205/tr.html#RecsPR">Proposed Recommendation</a> the group is seeking to demonstrate that
73 <blockquote>
74 <i>Each identified SPARQL feature has at least two implementations.</i>
75 </blockquote>
76 To do this, the group is asking for implementors of SPARQL to run their implementations against the <a href="r2">test suite</a> and report the results to the group. Reports can be submitted to <tt>public-rdf-dawg-comments@w3.org</tt>, a mailing list with a public archive. This document presents an example of EARL results and highlights a few best practices that will help the Working Group produce the implementation report.

79 <h4>The Structure of an EARL Report</h4>
80
81 <p><i>(In this section, the <tt>earl:</tt> prefix is shorthand for <tt>http://www.w3.org/ns/earl#</tt>.)</i></p>
82
83 <p>An <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/EARL10-Schema/">EARL</a> report consists of one <tt>earl:assertion</tt> per test run. Each assertion is <tt>earl:assertedBy</tt> the person or software that is responsible for running the test. Each assertion references the test being run via the <tt>earl:test</tt> predicate and identifies the implementation being tested via the <tt>earl:subject</tt> predicate.</p>
84
85 <p>The result of the single test run against an implementation is given by the <tt>earl:result</tt> predicate. The object of this predicate is an <tt>earl:TestResult</tt> that uses the <tt>earl:outcome</tt> predicate to specify the test's result (e.g. <tt>earl:pass</tt>, but see the EARL Schema for other possible <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/EARL10-Schema/#outcomevalue">outcome values</a>).
86
87 <h4>Best Practices for Reporting EARL to the DAWG</h4>
88
89 <p>In order to assemble a consistent implementation report, the DAWG asks that EARL reports submitted to the group observe the following conventions:</p>
90
91 <ul>
92 <li>An EARL assertor (the object of <tt>earl;assertedBy</tt>) can be a URI or a blank node, but should itself contain a <tt>foaf:homepage</tt> triple that uniquely identifies the assertor.</li>
93 <li>The object of <tt>earl:subject</tt> should be a URI. We use the <a href="http://usefulinc.com/doap/">DOAP</a> vocabulary to provide further information on the implementation being tested.</li>
94 <li>The canonical URIs for a test (the objects of <tt>earl:test</tt>) should be based on the test's URI as given by its manifest file. (For example, <tt>http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/tests/data-r2/graph/manifest#dawg-graph-01</tt>.)
95 </ul>
96
97 <h4>Example EARL</h4>

99 <p>The following example of EARL reporting is excerpted from <a href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-dawg/2007JulSep/0005.html">an example report</a> by DAWG participant Chimezie Ogbuji.</p>
