Bonjour, Le W3C annonce aujourd'hui la mise à jour de l'ébauche de travail du document "Evaluation and Report Language 1.0 Schema" ("EARL 1.0 Schema").[1] Le Evaluation et Report Language (EARL) est un format normalisé pour exprimer des résultats de tests. La motivation première pour développer ce format est de faciliter l'échange de résultats de tests entre différents outils d'évaluation de l'accessibilité par le biais d'un format non propriétaire et indépendant de plateforme. Il fournit également un vocabulaire réutilisable pour des fins d'assurance qualité et de validation. L'ébauche "EARL 1.0 Shema" définit un vocabulaire pour exprimer les résultats de tests. "EARL 1.0 Shema" est la partie technique d'un document qui incorpore les changements demandés depuis la publication de l'ébauche du 09 septembre 2005. Une deuxième partie traitera des objectifs de EARL et comprendra des indications sur ses usages. Le Groupe de travail recevra des commentaires sur cette ébauche jusqu'au 25 octobre prochain. Pour plus d'information, consulter le message (en anglais) suivant ma signature. Catherine [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/EARL10-Schema/ --

> > The Evaluation and Report Language (EARL) is a standardized format to
> express test results. The primary motivation for developing this language
> is to facilitate the exchange of test results between Web accessibility
> evaluation tools in a vendor neutral and platform independent format. It
> also provides reusable vocabulary for generic Web quality assurance and
> validation purposes. An overview of EARL is available for more background:

> > This document, EARL 1.0 Schema, defines a set of vocabulary to express

> results. It meets the requirements specified in the Requirements for the
> Evaluation and Report Language 1.0 [2], and incorporates change requests
> received since the 9 September 2005 Working Draft [3]. While this document
> focuses on the technical details of the specification, a companion
> document, EARL 1.0 Guide will describe the motivations for EARL and
> provide

> > The Evaluation and Repair Tools Working Group (ERT WG) encourages feedback

> sites.
> In particular, the group is looking for feedback about how complete the
> schema is, and how compatible it is with relevant metadata vocabularies in
> this field. Specific questions are also highlighted within the sections of
> the document. Please send comments to the (publicly visible) ERT WG
