ZOO Project WPS compliancy testing

In response to the report named CIP-ICT-PSP-2009-3 - 250474 made by 52°North for the project : BRIdging SErvices, Information and Data for Europe.

Indeed, some strange bahaviour of the ZOO Kernel was pointed out in this report. So ZOO Tribe decided to answer to this report by making his own report about ZOO Project.

GetCapabilities request

In the section 5.5 of the report an error was pointed out about some unexpected metadata : namely Test attribute to the Metadata node getting the "Demo" value. This was due to wrong ZCFG files of the first Services we made in the begining of the 2009 year.

The right URL to tun this test is wrong, you would use this one :

http://zoo-project.org/cgi-bin-new/zoo_loader.cgi?REQUEST=GetCapabilities&SERVICE=WPS&version=1.0.0

The annex II linked to this section contains strangely a ProcessDescription? document when it shall be a Capabilities Document instead. Maybe we don't have the final version of the report (I hope so ;)).

So for the GetCapabilities request, the Capabilities document outputed by the ZOO Kernel is Compliant.

DescribeProcess request

In the section 5.11 of the report we can read that the ZOO Kernel can't handle the DescribeProcess? request and output a valid ProcessDescriptions? Document. Indeed the first versions of ZOO Kernel was wrong in that, but hopefully the last one, included in OSGeoLiveDVD 4.0 returns already the valid ProcessDescriptions? document.

http://zoo-project.org/cgi-bin-new/zoo_loader.cgi?REQUEST=DescribeProcess&SERVICE=WPS&version=1.0.0&Identifier=Buffer

Using the url above we can confirm that ZOO Kernel is Compliant for the DescribeProcess? request.

Execute request

In the 5.13 section of the report you can get the requests for Execute as XML POST requests, as it is the mandatory method.

To use the XML POST requests provided in the report or easier by using copy/paste from this page, please follow this link.
