[OSGeo-Discuss] Software to test a WCS server?

[Alexandre Leroux]

Thanks to Jorge, Dominic and Justin for your replies.

I updated the wikipedia WCS entry accordingly for the benefit of everyone.

The WCS test engine seems pretty interesting to us. It will help us make 
sure our server also serves WMS in full compliance.

Have a nice day,

Alex
