Verifying node to pass all items of compliance test

TAPValidator application may be used to verify all the items of the node standard compliance checklist, defined in VAMDC-TAP standard specification. Here follow detailed instructions:

1. In any case when node returns XSAMS document, it must validate with

   the schema. It is not possible to test all the imaginable query parameters combinations, but node owner must test and verify at least the most popular ones.

2. A query should be issued, containing a combination of Restrictables,

   that guarantee not to return any data. Both preview and query actions should give a message box, saying that node contains no data.

3. Select species query may be executed the same way as any other query;

4. In case transfer compression is enabled in settings, and node

   doesn’t support it, a Warning will be printed in console window for each query. Console can be opened through menu, and stays open uptil it is closed before exitting application;

5. Support of HEAD requests can be verified using Preview button.

   Dialog should appear, indicating numbers returned by node

6. This check is trivial. Console log RadTransWavelength keyword

   should be present in the Keywords area, not grayed out.

7. Sample queries are validated on each settings save, see

   the console log and the bottom of the queries list.
