OGC CSW 2.0.2

• Test suite: http://cite.opengeospatial.org/test_engine/csw/2.0.2
• Test data: http://cite.opengeospatial.org/files/data-csw-2.0.2.zip

To run your own CITE Test

• you must ensure that pycsw is running with the CITE test data. pycsw comes shipped with an SQLite database of the CSW test data in tests/suites/cite/data/records.db. In default.cfg, set repository.database to tests/suites/cite/data/records.db.
• ensure that server.maxrecords is NOT enabled
• ensure that Atom support is not enabled (the OGC CITE tests provide the Atom namespace as a value which should return error, but pycsw supports Atom as valid if enabled. This should get fixed in the CITE tests
• go to http://cite.opengeospatial.org/teamengine/
• Click "Start Testing"
• You will be asked to login. If you do not have a CITE username/password, you must register to continue
• Click "Create a new session"
• Set the following:
• Organization: OGC
• Standard: CSW
• Version: 2.0.2
• Test Suite Rev: r3
• Click "Start a New Test Session"
• Enter the full GetCapabiilties URL (i.e. http://host/pycsw/csw.py?service=CSW&version=2.0.2&request=GetCapabilities)

At this point the OGC CITE tests will execute and results for the session will be returned.

Demo Server

• The demo server at http://demo.pycsw.org/cite/csw?service=CSW&version=2.0.2&request=GetCapabilities is configured with the CITE CSW test data. You can use the demo server against CITE for checking against latest master in Git. The demo server is pycsw's official OGC Reference Implementation.
