Comment(by bartvde):

 Hi Andreas, thanks for the comment. However that's not why these tests
 were failing, they are however valid reasons for that code statement to
 fail as well.

 The root problem in this case was that those WFS Capabilities tests have
 incomplete GetCapabilities XML snippets:

 {{{
 Engine name: Xerces
 Severity: error
 Description: cvc-complex-type.2.4.b: The content of element
 'wfs:WFS_Capabilities' is not complete. One of
 '{"http://www.opengis.net/ows":ServiceIdentification,
 "http://www.opengis.net/ows":ServiceProvider,
 "http://www.opengis.net/ows":OperationsMetadata,
 "http://www.opengis.net/wfs":FeatureTypeList,
 "http://www.opengis.net/wfs":ServesGMLObjectTypeList,
 "http://www.opengis.net/wfs":SupportsGMLObjectTypeList,
 "http://www.opengis.net/ogc":Filter_Capabilities}' is expected.
 Start location: 2:2
 End location: 2:22
 URL: http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#cvc-complex-type
 }}}

 Since the WFS capabilities parser checks for the service attribute to be
 equal to "WFS" (I could not come up with a better check at the time) in
 order to see if an exception occurred, it runs into the code block for
 parsing the exception:

 {{{
         if (capabilities.service === undefined) {
             // an error must have happened, so parse it and report back
             var format = new OpenLayers.Format.OGCExceptionReport();
             capabilities.error = format.read(data);
         }
 }}}
