```
public abstract class WFSStrategy
extends Specification
```
Facade interface to interact with a WFS instance.
Implementations of this interface know how to send and get information back from a WFS service for a specific protocol version, but are not meant to provide any logic other than the conversation with the service. For instance, WFSProtocol implementations are not required to transform filters to something appropriate for the service capabilities, nor any other control logic than creating and sending the requests mapping what is given to the operation methods.
This interface provides enough information extracted or derived from the WFS capabilities document as for the client code to issue requests appropriate for the server capabilities.
