The Test Bed offers a SHACL shape validation service that can be used to validate the shapes used to drive validation against RDF specifications. This service represents a key quality-control step to ensure that a specification's published shapes and the conformance testing based on them is built over strong foundations.
The SHACL shape validator is available to use as a standalone validator and through the Test Bed as part of conformance test scenarios. It offers the following APIs:
- Web user interface for user-driven validation.
- SOAP web service API for machine-to-machine integration and use from GITB TDL test cases.
- REST web service API for machine-to-machine integration.
- Command-line tool for offline validation.
The SHACLvalidator actually reuses the Test Bed's core RDF validation support that allows for a configuration-driven setup and automated updates.
