As X-Road user I want that publiced services WSDL-s comply to X-Road Message Protocol

[tao-aldo]

Affected components: wsdl-validator Affected documentation: - Estimated delivery: - External reference: -

Problem Often service description wsdls don't compile to X-Road Message Protocol and some even not valid as wsdl. Seems, that included wsdl-validator is too lax and not working correctly.

Examples:

• xRoadInstance=EE&memberClass=GOV&memberCode=70003218&subsystemCode=jvis&serviceCode=paigaldis_liigid&version=v1 - not valid as wsdl and not valid as x-road message (3.2 Describing Services with WSDL)
• xRoadInstance=ee-dev&memberClass=GOV&memberCode=70000310&subsystemCode=muinas&serviceCode=EHRObjektid&version=v1 - not valid as wsdl
• xRoadInstance=EE&memberClass=GOV&memberCode=70000349&subsystemCode=makis&serviceCode=makisTaxRates&version=v1 - not valid as x-road message

Also seen errors like <element name="Elukoht " (space in element name) and validator tolerates soap-encoding array type as element type. After complaining service owner already fixed them.

Acceptance criteria

• wsdl-validator cannot be disabled in server configutration
• wsdl-validator fully validates service descriptions
• wsdl-validator rejects ill-formed descriptions
• strict wsdl validators (like XMLSpy) and client generators accepts service descriptions
• all services descriptions fully comply X-Road Message Protocol

It looks like Apache CXF used for validation of WSDL documents ignores a lot of problems with WSDLs. We should consider switching to a better wsdl validator.

Additionaly we should store WSDL's in security server to avoid the problem when WSDL is changed after passing validation.

There's an issues regarding updating the WSDL validator in the X-Road backlog:
