  • Times out of order
• Multiple cue tests
  • Nested cues
  • Overlapping cues
  • Cue times out of order

Testing Procedure

Writing Tests

1. Check if the test you have in mind exists already in the wiki
2. If not, write your test case file
3. When you finish writing, document the test case in the wiki ASAP so you don't forget!
4. Commit your test case to the github repo

Peer Review

1. Review someone else's test case
2. Sign off in the 'Peer Review' column of the table with your name so that we know it's been looked at (TO DO: Create Peer Review column in tables)

Cue Time Syntax Rules

1. A WebVTT timestamp representing the start time offset of the cue. The time represented by this WebVTT timestamp must be greater than or equal to the start time offsets of all previous cues in the file.
2. One or more U+0020 SPACE characters or U+0009 CHARACTER TABULATION (tab) characters.
3. The string "-->" (U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS, U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS, U+003E GREATER-THAN SIGN).
4. One or more U+0020 SPACE characters or U+0009 CHARACTER TABULATION (tab) characters.
5. A WebVTT timestamp representing the end time offset of the cue. The time represented by this WebVTT timestamp must be greater than the start time offset of the cue.

I'm gonna remake the table using markdown. Hitting <td></td> is tedious

Filename	Description	Should Pass / Fail?	Reasoning	Creation Note	Comments	Peer Review
bad01.vtt	00:00.000 --> 00:00.000	Fail	End timestamp must be greater than start timestamp			Dale, Sept 26 2012
bad02.vtt	00:00.001 --> 00:00.000	Fail	End timestamp must be greater than start timestamp			Dale, Sept 26 2012
bad03.vtt	00:00.000 00:00.001	Fail	Timestamp separator not found		Took out the -->	Dale, Sept 26 2012
bad04.vtt	00:00.0000 --> 00:00.001	Fail	Milliseconds must be 3 digits			Dale, Sept 26 2012
bad05.vtt	00:000.000 --> 00:00.001	Fail	Seconds should be 2 digits			Dale, Sept 26 2012
bad06.vtt	000:00.000 --> 00:00.001	Fail	Minutes should be 2 digits			Dale, Sept 26 2012
bad07.vtt	00:0:00:00.000 --> 00:0:00:00.001	Fail	No support for days		Not that hours can go for a VERY long time, I tried up to 2 billion
bad08.vtt	:00:00.000 --> 00:00.001	Fail	Time stamp must start with a number		Could do a lot of test cases for this using every symbol/alphabet
bad09.vtt	00:01.000 --> 00:01.001 00:00.000 --> 00:00.001	Fail	Second time stamp must be greater or in-between the first one (nested)		Look up nested cues

TODO: Break hour, see if days work, create multiple cue times that don't make sense (first cue at 2 minutes, second at 1 minute)
