Sure,

ISARTOR (not far from where I'm sitting) is a set of PDFs that are not PDF/A-1b 
compliant. One uses them to make sure that one's PDF/A-1b tests correctly trap 
the errors. The files are about testing for non-conformance. They are a good 
first step!
The other collection is just a set of 10 PDF/UA documents to show what good 
PDF/UA can look like. The reference suite says nothing really about conformance 
but is a nice "reference" for getting the UA ball rolling....
Both are quite useful but don't really....

Oh, sorry.  I should not have said "conformance."  What I was thinking of was

<http://www.pdfa.org/2011/08/isartor-test-suite/>
and
<http://www.pdfa.org/publication/pdfua-reference-suite/>.

I note that "conforming" is used with respect to the reference suite, but I 
don't think those are offered as any determination of compliance.

I do favor what I see of the approach to test suites there.

Hi All,

I'm not familiar with any conformance testing, much less strong, within the 
PDFA. The Association is mainly about PDF advocacy and as a networking umbrella 
for most of the world's PDF experts. As a Class-A liaison to ISO on PDF we've, 
for example, had via the Association early access to PDF 2.0 and were able to 
contribute our reviews. The Association also maintains a PDF/A competence 
center and provides expertise to a number of organizations.

Conformance testing? Of What?
