Description

Phase 1 Schema Test Collection

Overview

The Phase 1 Schema Test Collection is a digital archive assembled in 2023 to support the validation of the early “Phase 1a” prototype of the Pinax metadata framework. It is a single‑collection record (type “Collection”) written in English and organized around the subject headings schema, test, and Phase 1a. The collection’s primary purpose is to provide minimal test data for developers and archivists working on the early stages of the Pinax schema.

Background

Pinax is a metadata standard designed for describing cultural‑heritage objects. Within Pinax’s development cycle, Phase 1a represents an early prototype of the schema, and this collection was assembled to exercise and verify its structural rules. The creator and hosting institution are unknown, and the collection’s rights status is unspecified. An access‑URL placeholder indicates that the collection is not yet publicly linked.

Contents

The collection contains two core components:
  • Metadata record – A JSON description of the collection itself, including its title, creation date, language, subjects, and a brief description.
  • Test file – `test‑phase1a.txt`, a plain‑text file whose sole content is the sentence “Testing type field!”. This file serves as a minimal example to exercise the schema’s handling of the `type` property.

    • The metadata record and test file are linked via the `documents` and `belongs to` relationships in the source JSON, ensuring that the test file is formally associated with the collection. The collection also references the Pinax schema itself, indicating that it “uses schema” Pinax.

    Scope

    The collection is narrowly focused on Phase 1a schema validation. It covers a single year (2023) and a single geographic or institutional context (none specified). The content is limited to a basic test file, making it a concise, focused resource for schema developers. Items outside the scope of schema testing—such as full‑scale cultural‑heritage records or multimedia assets—are not included.
