Introduction

Web service stubs (and mocks—see Chapter 3, Developing and Deploying Dynamic REST and SOAP Mocks) are often developed in the early stages of a project, to quickly provide limited functionality to the client application while the full web services are implemented. This chapter shows how SoapUI can help you quickly test and develop simple Java REST and SOAP web service stubs and generate tests by recording interactions with existing web services. The web service stub implementations that you'll develop will only involve a few lines of Java code and can be run as Java executables. Apart from providing a quick warm up on basic SoapUI testing, the service interfaces and implementation examples will be reused as the basis for more advanced topics later in this book.

What you'll learn

You will learn the following topics:

How SoapUI can help you test, update, refactor, and develop a simple stub SOAP web service using its WSDL
How SoapUI can help you test and develop a simple stub REST web service
How SoapUI's discovery features can help you generate tests
To use Apache CXF to generate, implement and run basic JAX-RS and JAX-WS web service stubs

What you'll need

You will need the following software:

A Java JDK: To compile and run the code samples (version 1.6 or above)
Apache CXF: Apache CXF is used to build, and sometimes run, all the REST and SOAP web services in this chapter
An IDE (optional): Using an IDE such as Eclipse should make exploring, compiling, and running the example code easier

Note

New to SoapUI?

While this chapter demonstrates how to set up basic SoapUI REST and SOAP projects, tests, and assertions, it doesn't cover the typical 'getting started' installation, setup, and overview of SoapUI. So if you are completely new to SoapUI, it might also be worth taking a look at the online SoapUI docs, for example, Getting started at http://www.soapui.org/.
