Testing the published service

Now that we have published our Bestaurants service, it is time for us to test whether it is working. Luckily, ArcGIS provides a nice way for testing our services; however, you will be requiring an Internet connection to test them. Go ahead and follow these steps for testing our services:

1. Open your browser and type in the following address: http://ARCGISMACHINE:6080/arcgis/rest.
2. Click on Bestaurants (MapServer).
3. Click on ArcGIS JavaScript to view the map service.

You should see the restaurants of Belize on the web now, which means that your service works perfectly and it is ready to be used for our web application. Take a look at the following screenshot that shows the Bestaurants service data:

Congratulations! You just completed your first basic GIS web application. But we still have a long run to tackle all the client's requirements.
