ESPD Demo Development Tools
The ESPD Demo Site
The ESPD Demo Site is a collection of tools designed to help developers who are in the process of creating an ESPD Service. Click on the image below to access the tools.
A description of the tools:
Distribution files
Download distribution files in Excel or XML format
-
The ESPD code list Excel and XML files
-
The Model and Data Structure Excel files
These downloads are available for ESPD-EDM Versions 3.3.0 and 4.0.0 directly from the Demo site and downloads can be filtered by version.
Code lists
Information about and download of code lists
-
Information about the code lists used in the ESPD, name, versions, URI, agency, links to more information for each list.
-
Contents of each code list i.e., the codes contained within each, translations of each code into all EU languages (if available), and an xml download of each code list.
Code list information is available for versions 3.3.0 and 4.0.0 of the ESPD-EDM and can be filtered by version and code list.
UUID
Check whether UUIDs are stored in eCertis
The UUID tool lets you enter a criterion UUID directly or search for one via the list, and then check if it is stored by eCertis by clicking on the "Check eCertis" button. The tool then queries eCertis to verify if the UUID can be found.
The list is ordered by ESPD version, then ItemID, ascending, and the list can be scrolled through to find the desired version and UUID.
All criterion in all ESPD versions, from v1.0.0 onwards, can be queried.
View
See how criteria elements might look in an online form
The ESPD Model Viewer demonstrates how a criterion in the model might be represented in HTML in an ESPD Service. Individual criteria can be filtered by version, and are then displayed in HTML on the page.
The viewer is available for v3.3.0 and v4.0.0 of the ESPD-EDM.
Examples
Generate example XML files for testing
The Examples Generator allows developers to generate example Request and Response xml files, according to their desired scenarios, that can then be used for testing their ESPD Service development. These xml files are verified as being correct so they can be used without compounding errors in testing, and creating confusion, by being inaccurate themselves.
Currently v3.3.0 example xml files can be generated.
Any comments on the documentation?
