Proposed resolution to issue BINDINGS-147

Proposed resolution to BINDINGS-147, "Conformance
Statement missing for the Web Services Binding Assertions"

Please review and comment on these changes,
I'd like at least some feedback on this one before I got ahead and do the
web services proposal.

Summary:

Include test assertions content in an
appendix of the test cases document; remove normative reference to TA document,
update descriptive text to reference the new appendix.

Detail:

Here's a modified version of the JMS
test cases document with the proposed changes:

Comments:

The resulting document has a section
3, "Cross Mapping of Test Assertions to TestCases", but then
the mapping from test assertions to normative statements is in an appendix
A.6 "Cross Mapping of Conformance Statements to Test Assertions",
which seems inconsistent to me, I would have expected all cross-mappings
to be in appendices. Also really I think that appendix title should be
"Cross Mapping of Normative Statements to Test Assertions", they
are not conformance statements.

The testCases section has a subsection
"Section 3" which I assume refers to the SCA JMS Binding Specification
Section 3....   in which case the Test Cases section 2 should have
additional subsections relating to the SCA JMS Binding Specification Section
4, 5 and 6, as the TA Appendix does.

At the risk of begging extra work, it
seems like all these cross mapping sections should have the mapped elements
be cross-referenced in the document to enable navigation...
