This is Laika, an open source electronic health record (EHR) testing framework.

Laika is an web based testing suite for systems that interact with HITSP C32 documents. Laika can generate a C32 document based on information specified through a web interface. C32 documents can also be uploaded to Laika to ensure their adherence to HITSP and HL7 standards (via XML Schema and Schematron). Laika can also examine the content of uploaded documents to verify the correctness and completeness of the clinical data being transmitted.

The target platform is JRuby on Rails, running under Glassfish.

To run the spec suite:

$ jruby -S rake spec

To run the selenium test suite (the app server must be running in test mode at port 4000):

$ jruby -S rake selenium:test

For complete validation functionality the UMLS database (including SNOMED) is required, see: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/research/umls/

The Laika Git repository is hosted on GitHub: http://github.com/CCHIT/laika/tree/master
