			<p>This page explains how to participate in the W3C HTML5 test suite effort. This effort is managed by the HTML5 test suite task force, part of the HTML Working Group.
</p><p>There are a number of ways to participate. We welcome contributions of new test cases. The more tests we have, the faster we can improve interoperability among Web browsers.
</p><p>If you wish to join the test suite task force, contact Philippe Le Hégaret &lt;plh@w3.org&gt;.

<p>Beyond the question of the number of tests:
</p>
<ul><li> the coverage of the HTML5 features
</li><li> the classification per feature of those tests
</li><li> the testing harness, to produce as many automatic tests as possible
</li></ul>
<a name="Release_Timeline" id="Release_Timeline"></a><h2> <span class="mw-headline"> Release Timeline </span></h2>
<p>The idea is to take test submissions for 4 months and review all submitted tests for 2 months.  The goal is to keep up with test submissions and allow people to plan time in their schedule to review tests.
</p><p>Here is the timeline for the first release:
</p>
<ul><li> <b>October 15, 2011</b>: all tests submitted
</li><li> <b>December 15, 2011</b>: all tests will be fixed due to bugs and feedback from the list. Tests that are not complete will get removed from the approved folder.  Tests that don't get updated due to feedback will also get removed from the approved folder.
