I've not installed it so won't be able to help with that. I thought you were trying to find getting started type documentation. I hope you don't mind but I have updated the heading on your question to hopefully match what you require more accurately.– PolyGeo ♦Jun 14, 2012 at 1:40

No issue of changing question. Actually i wanted to perform WPS using OplenLayes JS(Java Script). where i will use geoserver WFS and perform WPS on this WFS. Can please help me out.– PariFeb 11, 2013 at 6:28
Just follow the link posted by @PolyGeo , the second page shows how to use it and provides an example on how to perform a buffer operation.
Even better at the end there is a link to the WPS Request Builder which is a web based tool for constructing WPS requests. This should get you started quickly.
Besides the suggestions that @PolyGeo and @unicoletti already provided, I found the Processing part of the OpenGeo Suite documentation to be the most helpful for starting to use WPS.
The out-of-the-box WPS processes available with the GeoServer WPS extension might not fulfil all your needs. In that case, you will have to develop your own WPS processes and take a deep look at the GeoTools API documentation.
Disclaimer: I'm also a beginner regarding WPS.
