Cite Test Guide

A step by step guide to the GeoServer Compliance Interoperability Test Engine (CITE).

Check out CITE tools

The CITE tools are available at https://github.com/jdeolive/geoserver-cite-tools. The README file contains the most update documentation of how to checkout and build the tools. The quick version is:

git clone git://github.com/jdeolive/geoserver-cite-tools.git
cd geoserver-cite-tools
git submodule update --init
mvn clean install

Run WFS 1.0 tests

Note

Running WFS 1.0 tests require PostGIS to be installed on the system.

  1. Create a PostGIS user named “cite”:

    createuser cite
    
  2. Create a PostGIS databased named “cite”, owned by the “cite” user:

    createdb -T template_postgis -U cite cite
    
  3. Change directory to the citewfs-1.0 data directory and execute the script cite_data.sql:

    psql -U cite cite < cite_data.sql
    
  4. Start GeoServer with the citewfs-1.0 data directory. Example:

    cd <root of geoserver install>
    export GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR=<root of geoserver sources>/data/citewfs-1.0
    ./bin/startup.sh
    
  5. Change directory back to the cite tools and run the tests:

    ant wfs-1.0
    

    With the following parameters:

    1. Capabilities URL

    2. All tests included

      ../_images/tewfs-1_0.jpg

Run WFS 1.1 tests

Note

Running WFS 1.1 tests require PostGIS to be installed on the system.

  1. Create a PostGIS user named “cite”:

    createuser cite
    
  2. Create a PostGIS databased named “cite”, owned by the “cite” user:

    createdb -T template_postgis -U cite cite
    
  3. Change directory to the citewfs-1.1 data directory and execute the script dataset-sf0.sql:

    psql -U cite cite < dataset-sf0.sql
    
  4. Start GeoServer with the citewfs-1.1 data directory. Example:

    cd <root of geoserver install>
    export GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR=<root of geoserver sources>/data/citewfs-1.1
    ./bin/startup.sh
    
  5. Change directory back to the cite tools and run the tests:

    ant wfs-1.1
    

    With the following parameters:

    1. Capabilities URL

    2. Supported Conformance Classes:

      • Ensure WFS-Transaction is checked

      • Ensure WFS-Xlink is unchecked

    3. GML Simple Features: SF-0

Run WMS 1.1 tests

  1. Start GeoServer with the citewms-1.1 data directory.

  2. Change directory back to the cite tools and run the tests:

    ant wms-1.1
    

    With the following parameters:

    1. Capabilities URL

    2. UpdateSequence Values:

      • Ensure Automatic is selected

      • “2” for value that is lexically higher

      • “0” for value that is lexically lower

    3. Certification Profile : QUERYABLE

    4. Optional Tests:

      • Ensure Recommendation Support is checked

      • Ensure GML FeatureInfo is checked

      • Ensure Fees and Access Constraints is checked

      • For BoundingBox Constraints ensure Either is selected

    5. Click OK

Run WCS 1.1 tests

  1. Start GeoServer with the citewcs-1.1 data directory.

  2. Change directory back to the cite tools and run the tests:

    ant wcs-1.1
    

    With the following parameters:

    1. Capabilities URL:

    Click Next

    ../_images/tewcs-1_1a.jpg
  3. Accept the default values and click Submit

    ../_images/tewcs-1_1b.jpg

Run WCS 1.0 tests

Warning

The WCS specification does not allow a cite compliant WCS 1.0 and 1.1 version to co-exist. To successfully run the WCS 1.0 cite tests the wms1_1-<VERSION>.jar must be removed from the geoserver WEB-INF/lib directory.

  1. Remove the wcs1_1-<VERSION>.jar from WEB-INF/lib directory.

  2. Start GeoServer with the citewcs-1.0 data directory.

  3. Change directory back to the cite tools and run the tests:

    ant wcs-1.0
    

    With the following parameters:

    1. Capabilities URL:

    2. MIME Header Setup: “image/tiff”

    3. Update Sequence Values:

      • “2” for value that is lexically higher

      • “0” for value that is lexically lower

    4. Grid Resolutions:

      • “0.1” for RESX

      • “0.1” for RESY

    5. Options:

      • Ensure Verify that the server supports XML encoding is checked

      • Ensure Verify that the server supports range set axis is checked

    6. Schemas:

      • Ensure that original schemas is selected

    7. Click OK

Teamengine Web Application

The Teamengine web application is useful for analyzing results of a test run. To run the web application execute:

ant webapp

From the cite tools checkout. Once started the web app will be available at:

To run on a different port pass the -Dengine.port system property to ant command.
