# Standards Conformance

This section of the documentation describes the extent to which Saxon conforms to external specifications, notably W3C language specifications and Java API specifications.

Statements of conformance are made here in good faith, but since there are as yet no complete conformance test suites, the list of discrepancies is almost certainly incomplete. Any information about discrepancies or non-conformances not noted here will be welcomed, and the differences will either be corrected in the product, or documented in a future revision of this section.
