Hi Guillem,

Thanks for you message. My two cents below:

That's an option. Worth remembering that not every processor will
produce an (X)HTML/XML output. Think, for example, to a "lint" tool. I'm
not sure a test suite based on XPath/CSS selector would be useful in
that case. Or did I misunderstood the point here?

As far as I understand it, that's what Dan and the asciidoctor team had
in mind with the TCK. I quote the initial list message below:

I don't know which form the TCK will take. As for myself, I would push
toward a set of 2-tuple mapping an input string with a
language-independent (aka JSON) representation of the expected DOM/ASG.

Anyway, everything is open to discussion. So don't hesitate to share
your thoughts on the subject!
