[jira] Commented: (XALANJ-2355) Some namespace tests should be moved from 'conformance' to 'acceptance'

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2355?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12470654 ] 

Brian Minchau commented on XALANJ-2355:
---------------------------------------

During the Xalan-J JIRA triage on February 5, 2007 Dave Marston said that what he
is thinking of is that there are some cases where there is a prefix collision and
the processor must generate a prefix, e.g. ns0, ns1, ns2 ...

The output XML need only have the output elements in the correct namespace (URI) but the prefix for the element is a sort of necessary evil. Where possible a processor usually uses the same prefixes as in the stylesheet or in the input XML, but it need not, just as long as the output elements are in the correct namespace.

The gold file may have some prefixes, or indeed even all prefixes,  that were not in the stylesheet or in the xml being transformed. 

The issue seems to be how smart the comparator program is in the test harness. So perhaps all of the tests that Dave was thinking of are still valid conformance tests. Dave said he will revisit this JIRA issue.

> During the Xalan-J JIRA triage on December 11, 2006 David Marston suggested that there might 
> be tests in the namespace area that are actually 'acceptance' tests that should be moved out
> of the 'conformance' area.
> One such test would be due to XALANJ-2334 and XALANJ-2150.
