It is implemented, but the name is 'assert-xml' please check the latest version of catalog-schema.xsd:
http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/2011/QT3-test-suite/catalog-schema.xsd?rev=1.25;content-type=text%2Fx-cvsweb-markup
look for 'assert-xml'

Already reported as lp:956460.

Note: the FOTS driver should be used together with the -o output.xml and --indent of the Zorba CLI.
The user will then get trace output in the text window and the output of the tests in the output.xml file.
Whenever a test was run, there is a trace output for it's name on the command line.
Whenever a test that was run failed, there is a trace message for that pointing also the name of the test case it belongs to for easy identification.
I have updated the README.txt to reflect these issues, see

> - Rename fots_driver to fots
> - Rename zorba-fots-driver.xqy to fots-driver.xq
People must get used to the terminology:
- FOTS means the testsuite from W3C: hence when a test is wrong => file a bug to W3C
- FOTS driver is the thing that runs the testsuite: hence when an error is detected in the FOTS driver = > file a bug in Launchpad with a "fots-driver" TAG
- test case is a single test
- test set is unit (a bunch) of tests grouped together because they test a certain feature/function/functionality

The renaming you suggest would confuse people.

If you really insist then I can rename the files, sure...

> - Does the dependency output have to appear in every run?
Do not know what you mean by "dependency output": can you please be more specific?
