CSS Namespaces Conformance Test Suite

This is a Release Candidate version of the official W3C CSS Namespaces Test Suite. It relies on support for CSS and Selectors as the host language using CSS Namespaces. The tests are given as XML files and require support for Namespaces in XML and XHTML 1.x.

This test suite is considered to be complete with no known or suspected bugs at the time of its publication. If you find any errors, would like to contribute additional tests, or have other feedback, please post to the archived public discussion mailing list for CSS test suites, public-css-testsuite@w3.org.
