Hi PRAMENDRA,

First of all, 
could you send like this mail to dhstest@tahi.org?

As far as I know, a lot of DNS clients(resolver) doesn't 
support caching function.

#Kind of these tests(30, 34, 35 etc.. that useing Cashing
# function) are for developers who implement the Caching
# function in DNS client.

Thanks,
