The mobileOK Checker returns an XML response when called with an "output=unicorn" query parameter. The code that reacts to this parameter is in: - RequestParameters.java [1]: detects the query parameter - TesterHttpServlet.java [2]: based on detected query parameter, calls the right XSLT to convert the response returned by the mobileOK Checker library - xslt/mobileokresults2unixorn.xsl [3]: converts the response returned by the mobileOK Checker to a Unicorn response. > That being said, for use of the service by automatic tools, we would > probably want to make sure first that such tools wouldn't overload the > service (or look into making separate arrangement for the said tools). Indeed. Francois.
