So this evening I added,and committed, tests for the test impls of ICoreResource and IResourceRoot. I'm thinking that this impl will be vital in testing Namespace resolution. In fact I'm starting to see how the Eclipse implementation might extend what is now an almost complete impl of ICoreResource and IResourceRoot. I may move them out of the tests and into the main as an implementation IDE implementers may extend, or not as they see fit. In fact, it may serve more as an example since implementers may see that building a completely custom implementation is better suited/optimized for their platform. That said, I have not moved anything out of test yet. While writing the tests I've noticed that this resource thingy is complicated! Never really dawned on me before as what is now api evolved over a long time a little bit at a time. Would cool if there was a reusable test suite that someone could plug my implementation into and then their implementation into to ensure they both pass the same test. Would mean sharing fixtures. Kinda like a compatibility test suite - does your implementation meet the standard needed by the builder? Have no idea yet how such a thing would be built.
