Hi all, I’d like to help move forward with a discussion on our GitHub Discussion [1]: creating a dedicated sedona-testing repository, similar to what Apache Parquet and Arrow projects have done (e.g., apache/parquet-testing, apache/arrow-testing).
As Dewey mentioned, test cases, test data, and examples could cover hundreds of geospatial functions. Extracting this into a dedicated repo would make these resources easier to discover, reuse, and even integrate with external tools or projects. I’m strongly in favor of this idea and think it can benefit both Sedona developers and the broader ecosystem. Dewey also offered to contribute data from geoarrow/geoarrow-data, including the WKT/WKB test suite, which would be a great addition. Would love to hear what others think. If there’s general support, I'd like to kick start the voting process. Best, Jia [1] https://github.com/apache/sedona/discussions/1950
