Thu Apr 10 10:58:23 CEST 2003 What is it? ----------- This is distribution contains a bunch of RDF Query Test Cases for the RDF Data Query Langauge (RDQL) [1][2] using the proposed RDF Query Test Cases manifest [3] and Recording Query Results [4] formats. The distribution aims to support the ad hoc work on RDF Query (and Rule) Testcase [5], to build a publicly avialable test cases repository for RDF tool developers using the RDQL langauge. Conversions to other RDF Query language syntaxes is possible using Libby Miller's tool [6]. The distribution contains the RDQL tests as distributed into the Jena2-pre2 toolkit [7] distribution using the updated RDQL EBNF grammar [8]. See also Squish RDF Query Test Cases [9] using the same formats.
