Introduction


Well here we are! It's the final chapter, and having mastered many areas in SoapUI, it's time to look at how to add new functionality! This chapter focuses mainly on understanding and extending SoapUI functionality either directly (via source code) or by developing plugins.

What you'll learn

You will learn the following topics:

  • The SoapUI framework: By studying and building SoapUI from its source code you have the ultimate access to how it works, how to use it, and how to extend it!

  • Key SoapUI extension objects: You'll learn about custom Actions, Factories, and Listeners and how to use them to provide additional functionality.

  • How to build, package, deploy, and share your extensions as plugins: Once you know how to extend SoapUI, you'll learn how to develop plugins to package and share your great new functionality!

This chapter concentrates on developing open source (old-style) extensions and plugins. For more information on developing new style (pro) plugins please see:
