What is Web Service Functional Testing ?
Web Services are an XML based technology that allow applications to communicate with each other, regardless of the environment, by exchanging messages in a standardized format ( XML ) via web interfaces ( SOAP and WSDL APIs ). Consumers of web services will want assurances that a web service won’t fail to return a response in a certain time period. Thus, the goal of web service functional testing is to ensure that the web service application delivers appropriate responses for the given requests i.e., to ensure that the functionality of the web service is as expected.
AdventNet QEngine Web Service Functional Test tool provides an easy-to-use Web UI to test the functionality of your Web Service application for valid, invalid and inopportune inputs. QEngine can test WebServices that expose their functionality via SOAP interfaces. Automatically generates test scripts from a WSDL document and verifies the actual response with the expected response. The responses to each SOAP request can be validated against the data sources such as, CSV or Database.
To know the features of Web Service Functional test tool, please refer to the feature matrix.
You can test the functionality of Web Service Application in two simple steps:
Click New Service option to automatically generate test scripts for WSDL
Run test scripts to view the reports or results of test execution.
Follow the below given links to know the details of how to generate the web service functional test scripts, execute test scripts and view reports:
