Tests Laravel Package

Getting Started

This package is obsolete and read-only, containing historical JSON-LD test suites split from a now-archived working group repository. It is not intended for direct use in application code. If you're working with JSON-LD today, start with the active JSON-LD PHP library or its successor integrations (e.g., justinrainbow/json-ld). This test suite is only useful if you need to validate conformance against official W3C test cases—for example, when developing or auditing a JSON-LD processor.

Implementation Patterns

• Testing JSON-LD processors: Run the included .jsonld and .ttl test manifests to verify compliance with W3C JSON-LD specifications (e.g., json-ld-api, json-ld-framing).
• CI validation: Reference this package in test scripts to validate your JSON-LD processing logic (e.g., phpunit tests that compare your output against expected results in tests/manifests/).
• Upstream integration: Because it’s archived, do not require this package in production dependencies. Instead, manually fetch or vendor specific manifests if strict compliance testing is needed.

Gotchas and Tips

• ⚠️ Archived & unmaintained: Tests are from 2014 and may not cover modern extensions (e.g., JSON-LD 1.1 Framing, APIs). Use alongside newer test suites like those in the W3C JSON-LD CG or github.com/w3c/json-ld-benchmarks.
• No autoloading or bootstrap: This package contains raw test files—no PHP code to require. Tests are JSON/Turtle manifests, not PHPUnit tests.
• Path confusion: The json-ld/tests naming may mislead developers into thinking it’s a test helper for their own code. Clarify intent: this is the test data, not a testing framework.
• Patch carefully: If cherry-picking individual test files, verify against current spec requirements—some edge-case tests may be outdated or superseded.
• Extension tip: For deep compliance testing, build a custom runner that parses manifest.jsonld entries and validates your processor’s behavior per action/result pairs.
