XSpec v3.4.3 Released

We are pleased to announce the release of XSpec v3.4.3, the open source unit test and behaviour-driven development framework for XSLT, XQuery, and Schematron. This version of XSpec adds more entry points to the support for XQS as the Schematron implementation.

You can get the latest release of XSpec and read the release notes on GitHub.

Highlights

• The XProc-based transformation scenarios for running test suites in Oxygen use XProc v3.
• If your Schematron schema uses an XQuery-based queryBinding (e.g., queryBinding="xquery31"), there are now more ways to execute an XSpec test for that schema. XSpec v3.4 adds support in xspec.bat, xspec.sh, Ant, and the "Run XSpec Test" transformation scenario. A local installation of BaseX is required. To learn more, see Getting Started with XSpec and Schematron and Schematron implementation.
• Requires Java 17 or later, and no longer supports Saxon 10.

Many thanks to all the XSpec contributors who made this release possible! They are listed in the release notes.
