Would like to clarify that you really meant 'normative portions'. To me,
normative portions include both mandatory and optional parts.
<mje>
Yes, I agree "normative"
includes both mandatory and optional - I took this as read.

The test suite is a thorough examination of conformance to the spec, but
the testcases do not test any of the optional bits, regardless of
whether they are testable or not.
<mje>
I agree.
However, I don't think
that this undermines the usefulness of the testcases in
validating portability
and interoperability - I believe that the testcases check these
pretty well. As well
as the Assembly testcases, we should bear in mind that we are
requiring the runtime to
pass the Policy, Web Services and (one) implementation
test suite.
The Web services test suite
delves even more deeply into the question of
interoperability, I note
the tests there involve JAX-WS clients AND servers that the
SCA runtime is obliged
to work with, involving detailed examination of the content of
the SOAP messages in some
cases.
