Cite Test Guide

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

Check out OGC CITE suite tests

Note

The CITE suite tests are available at Open Geospatial Consortium.

Requirements:

CITE automation tests with docker

How to run the CITE Test suites with docker.

Requirements:

Note

The CITE tools are available in the build/cite folder of the GeoServer Git repository:

Set-up the environment

  1. Clone the repository.

    git clone https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver.git

  2. Go to the cite directory.

    cd geoserver/build/cite

  3. Inside you will find a structure, like below, with a list of directories which contains the name of the suites to run.

    cite
|-- forms
|-- geoserver
|-- run-test.sh
|-- wcs10
|-- wcs11
|-- wfs10
|-- wms11
|-- wms13
|-- wfs11
|-- interactive
|-- logs
|-- docker-compose.yml
|-- postgres
|-- README.md
`-- Makefile

Running the suite tests

There are 2 ways to run the suites. One is running with make that will automate all the commands, and the second one is running the test through WebUI:

  1. Running it through Makefile:

    • run make in the console, it will give you the list of commands to run.

      make

    • the output will look like this:

      clean: $(suite)          This will clean the Environment of previous runs.
build: $(suite)          This will build the GeoServer Docker Image for the Environment.
test: $(suite)           This will run the Suite test with teamengine.
webUI: $(suite)          This will run the Suite test with teamengine.

    • Choose which test to run, this is an example:

      Warning

      The first Docker build may take a long time.

      suite=wcs10

      Note

      Valid values for the suite parameter are:

      • wcs10

      • wcs11

      • wfs10

      • wfs11

      • wms11

      • wms13

    • Choose which GeoServer war file to test by setting the war_url environment variable inside the Makefile, ex:

      war_url = "https://build.geoserver.org/geoserver/main/geoserver-main-latest-war.zip"

  2. If you don’t want to do it inside the Makefile you have the option of adding the variable in the command when you build the docker images.

    • To clean the local environment.

      make clean

    • To build the GeoServer Docker image locally.

      make build suite=<suite-name>

    • Alternative, with the war_url variable include:

      make build suite=<suite-name> war_url=<url-or-the-GeoServer-war-file-desired>

    • To run the suite test.

      make test suite=<suite-name>

    • To run the full automate workflow.

      make clean build test suite=<suite-name>

Run CITE Test Suites on a local PC

Note

I assume that you have a standalone GeoServer running.

Important

Details to consider when you are running the tests:

  • The default username/password for the teamengine webUI are teamengine/teamengine.

  • the default URL for the teamengine webUI is http://localhost:8888/teamengine/

  • The output of the old suite tests might not appear in the Result page. So you should click on the link below detailed old test report, to get the full report. Ex.

../_images/old-report.png ../_images/full-report.png

  • Since you are running teamengine inside a container, the localhost in the URL of GeoServer for the tests can’t be used, for that, get the IP address of the host where the GeoServer is running. You will use it later.

  • after you log in to teamengine webUI you have to create a session.

../_images/seccion.png

  • to run the tests you have to choose which one you want, and then click on Start a new test session. This is an example:

../_images/tewfs-1_0a.png

Requirements:

  • GeoServer running.

  • PostgreSQL with PostGIS extension installed. (only for the WFS Tests Suites)

  • Teamengine Running in docker container.

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver.git

  2. Change directory to the cite

    cd geoserver/build/cite

  3. Check the commands available:

    • Run make to check:

    make

    • you should get an output as following:

    clean: $(suite)          This will clean the Environment of previous runs.
build: $(suite)          This will build the GeoServer Docker Image for the Environment.
test: $(suite)           This will run the Suite test with teamengine.
webUI: $(suite)          This will run the Suite test with teamengine.

Run WFS 1.0 tests

Important

Running WFS 1.0 tests require PostgreSQL with PostGIS extension installed in the system.

Requirements:

  • GeoServer running

  • teamengine

  • PostgreSQL

  • PostGIS

  1. Prepare the environment:

    • login to PostgreSQL and create a user named “cite”.

    createuser cite;

    • Create a database named “cite”, owned by the “cite” user:

    createdb cite own by cite;

    • enter the database and enable the postgis extension:

    create extension postgis;

    • Change directory to the citewfs-1.0 data directory and execute the script cite_data_postgis2.sql:

    cd <path of GeoServer repository>
psql -U cite cite < build/cite/wfs10/citewfs-1.0/cite_data_postgis2.sql

    • Start GeoServer with the citewfs-1.0 data directory. Example:

    Important

    If the PostgreSQL server is not on the same host as the GeoServer, you have to change the <entry key=”host”>localhost</entry> in the datastore.xml file, located inside each workspace directory. ex.

    Note

    <path of GeoServer repository>/build/cite/wfs10/citewfs-1.0/workspaces/cgf/cgf/datastore.xml

    cd <root of GeoServer install>
export GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR=<path of GeoServer repository>/build/cite/wfs10/citewfs-1.0
./bin/startup.sh

  2. Start the test:

    make webUI

  3. Go to the browser and open the teamengine webUI.

    • click on the Sign in button and enter the user and password.

    • after creating the session, and choosing the test, enter the following parameters:

    1. Capabilities URL http://<ip-of-the-GeoServer>:8080/geoserver/wfs?request=getcapabilities&service=wfs&version=1.0.0

    2. Enable tests with multiple namespaces tests included
