I've had some type of tests around for a while now, but they weren't
suitable for implementers. I've now recoded and reformatted them so
that they output a table of results using James Graham's
testharness.js. The link is here, but WARNING: it will run script
continuously for a few minutes, which will freeze Firefox (Chrome is
fine):

I haven't tested it yet in IE or Opera, but obviously that's fairly
high on my priority list. I also intend to break it up into more
manageable chunks so it doesn't freeze the tab or browser for quite so
long. The tests are documented in the specification itself:
http://aryeh.name/spec/editing/editing.html#tests
There are currently 56,720 individual tests, some of which contain
several independent assertions. Most of the tests are
queryCommand*()-related, since I generally run six such tests
(indeterm, state, value; before, after) for each command executed. I
would greatly appreciate feedback if anyone spots tests that don't
seem to give reasonable or correct results -- that could signify a bug
in the test suite and/or the spec.
This is just a first pass, I still have a bunch of cleanup to do.
Nevertheless, feedback appreciated!
