Title:

*

[WFS/FES SWG] The ATS should not includes tests where the service parameter is

Source:

*

Work item code:

Category:

*

F (Critical correction)

Reason for

change:

*

Clause A.2.15.1 has a test that requires the omission of the service parameter. Since the purpose of the service parameter is to

distinguish which service to invoke at an endpoint, its omission is actually an indeterminate state and so is outside the scope of the WFS test suite.

Summary of

change:

*

Eliminate test A.2.15.1.

Consequences if

not approved:

Aggregated or combined services at a single end point cannot be tested because the end point will not know which service to invoke and thus which behaviour to express. Not all OGC services behave the same way! For example WMS 1.0.0 actually allows the omission of the service parameter.
