- Server URL - i.e. http://localhost:8080/pentaho
- Solution - i.e. /samples/analysis
- Verify that you can query the published model using WAQR
- Test modifying and republishing the model and verify that the changes have been applied using WAQR
Importing/Exporting Domain Files
- Export a model to XMI
- Import the model providing it with a new name
- Validate that the model can still be modified and queried using the Query Editor
