Currently, to run the tests, the XSpec description document is transformed into an XSLT stylesheet which imports the stylesheet being tested. Running this stylesheet results in an XML document that holds the results, which is then transformed into an HTML report. The two stylesheets involved in this process are:

• generate-xspec-tests.xsl, to transform the XSpec document into XSLT
• format-xspec-report.xsl, to transform the XML report into HTML

Two scripts are provided that will perform this pipeline for you:

• xspec.bat, a Windows batch script.
• xspec.sh, a bash script for Mac OS X (might work on linux, but untested).

Note that you will have to edit each script to match the location of Saxon on your system.

To run the batch/bash scripts, use the command line:

> xspec filename

Two alternative scripts are also provided:

• build.xml, an Ant build. You will have to edit the script to point to location of Saxon on your system. To run, use the command line:

    > ant -Dxspec.xml=filename

Also see RunningWithAnt.

• xspec.xpl, an XProc pipeline (note that it doesn't indent the XML output correctly). To run, use the command line:

   > java com.xmlcalabash.drivers.Main -i source=filename xspec.xpl

You can also integrate XSpec into Oxygen.

If you develop more scripts, please share them.
