XSLT Tools/SmokeScenarios

These tests are based on chapter 17 of the XML Bible: XSLT. This chapter is also a good introduction for those that aren't familiar with XSLT and need a primer on getting started.

Prereqs

• Create a Project to hold the XML and XSL files. This project will also hold the output for the transformations.
• Create an XML file that contains the periodic table from Listing 17-1.

XSL Tools Smoke Test Scenarios

The following scenarios will test the basic functionality of the editor. These scenarios are broken into several sections that will test options of the XSL Tools editor and plugins from end to end.

Scenario 1: Simple XSL Stylesheet Editing Test

1. Create a new XSL File by using the New XSL File Wizaard.
   1. Give the XSL File a name like Scenario1.xsl
   2. Select a normal XSL Stylesheet.
2. Using the XSL Editor, create the styelsheet in Listing 17-2.
   1. Test Content Assistance for XSLT elements.
      1. Note that currently that within non-xsl elements there isn't content assistance for the elements until an XSL element is added.
3. Save the File.
4. Verify that Validation is working as expected.
5. Verify that Validation Preferences can be changed.
