Did someone reply to this question yet?  I don't think there was any public reply on the list.

We have the same problem: we do not have a transactional WFS to run the transaction files from the CITE website and we would need the test data  (at least the "Wfs basic test data" for now) in either GML format or any other GIS format (Shapefiles, MapInfo, whatever).

Thanks in advance.

Daniel,

The test data for WFS is different from the WMS. All the test data is
available on the test engine site on the description page for the WFS tests.
This is the page after you have selected that you want to test a WFS.

The data is in WFS Transaction format as this way we can delete the old data
before populating the new data. The contents of the WFS transaction in the
wfs:Insert elements is GML so this can cut and paste into another document
and then loaded into your WFS.

The schemas can be found on the Web Feature Service instruction page when
creating a test session. There is also a WFS testing guidelines document
http://member.opengis.org/tc/archive/arch03/03-082.html that is being
reviewed
at the moment that contains the links to the schemas.

I have attached an XSLT file that should extract the GML in the transaction
into a feature collection. This file was developed in response to this email
and is designed to show you how it could be done. It does not necessarily
produce a document that can be used by every vendors application, for
example it does not contain a reference to the schemas.
