How do you guys Test your SOAP Services? Do you use Tools like soapUI
or do you write Unit Tests
?
Just wanted to hear some opinions, what you prefer, what the advantages or disadvantages of both approaches are? And if someone writes Unit Tests
, can you give me an example how to write those???
Edit: I developed a lot of REST services, which I usually tested using JUnit and a REST Client Framework. So when the REST Service was deployed, I was able to invoke those services with as a JUnit Test using a http connection. Is there something similiar in SOAP too? Does anyone have an example code for a SOAP Client?
The best way to test your SOAP service is by using the SOAPUI testing tool.
With JDEF you can create your SOAP Application, following SOAP standards - and then easily verify this through the Enterprise Manager Console provided by Oracle.
You just get an instance of that particular service, and then you can see the audit flow.
