We do have test suites defined by opengroup which most of the

They might be a good start, but i suspect they would be kind of old
hat. That is, not tell us much new.
For instance, I would be particularly interested in testing
internationalization interoperability.
That is, testing such things as SASLprep (in clients) and LDAPprep (in
servers).
There are various other changes made in LDAPbis that might impact
interoperability and should be tested.
And then there are various extensions...
or should we define new test suites as part of this exercise?
I think a good strategy is for each participant to come armed with
their own test suite of things like to test across all (applicable)
players. I assume everyone runs their own suite against their own
software. What we want to do is run each of these suites against the
others' software.
