This page will allow you to play with the Normalize, Merge and Intersect operations on WS-Policy statements by providing some WS-Policy statements and executing the desired function. The demo page itself has the following fields:

• Endpoint URL
  Enter the URL of the service that supports the WS-Policy tests.

• Known URLs
  Or, you can select from the list of known endpoints in the drop-down.

• Test
  Select the test/operation you want to run. You can choose from Normalize, Merge and Intersect.

• Policy(ies)
  If you choose Normalize as the test then you can enter a single policy in the left textarea. If you choose Merge or Intersect then a seconds textarea will appear on the left side of the page - allowing you to enter a second Policy statement. In both case a drop-down will also be available for you to choose from a predefined list of policies.
  Some of the policies in the predefined list come from the conformance testing as talked about in the WS-Policy Yahoo group. Look for the ones that start with "MI" in their name.

• Run
  After selecting the test and entering the policy (or policies), click on the Run button to invoke the test.

• Output
  After running, the output will be displayed in this textarea.

Supporting endpoints must conform to the following rules:

• The Action URI will be of the form:
    http://example.com/ws/2004/09/policy/Normalize/Request
  where the word "Normalize" would be replaced by either "Merge" or "Intersect" as appropriate.
• The Body of the message contains either one or two policies, depending on the test run, as immediate chilren of the Body element. Note: this means the determination of which test is run is not based on anything in the Body, but rather the Action URI.
