Section 6.1.1.1 of the 0.1.6.3 spec, Repository Descriptors, lists a number of descriptors whose absence indicates lack of support for a feature. The TCK does not seem to honor these descriptors. For example, my implementation does not yet support observation, but the observation tests fail.
What I was expecting was that with OPTION_OBSERVATION_SUPPORTED not present, the observation tests would check for the UnsupportedRepositoryOperationException and fail the test only if it did not get it. Three questions: 1. How is the TCK supposed to behave? 2. If it behaves as I describe, do I just omit the TestAll of the observation package? 3. If not, how do I pass the tests?
