Web Services Testing with soapUI

Course: SOAPUI

Duration: 2 Days

Level: I

Course Summary

This course teaches students the best web service testing mechanisms with the industry leading open source testing tool, soapUI. Students will learn to use soapUI effectively in testing service-oriented solutions focusing on testing functional as well as non-functional characteristics of web services. SoapUI is capable of testing JDBC data sources, web applications, RESTful services and web services exposed over transports such as JMS. The course will discuss all these features and more, in detail, through practical and clear examples.

This course is focused on teaching soapUI to test web services in an effective manner. It starts with a general introduction to service-oriented architecture (SOA) followed by testing aspects of service-oriented solutions. It will give students a comprehensive overview of usage of soapUI in SOA and web services testing projects.
