Web Services Test Automation: Framework, Challenges & Benefits
Web services provide a standard means of interoperating between software applications running on a variety of platforms and frameworks. These services form basis of a connection technology
such that services are connected together into a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA).In this Slide share we will see:
The Challenges faced by Web Services Web Services Test Automation Framework Features Benefits by Adopting Web Services Test Automation Frameworks
Web Services Test Automation: Framework, Challenges & Benefits
The Challenges faced by Web Services:• Lack of assurance of trustworthiness• Improper provision of client’s input parameters might be a major challenge• Malicious users can manipulate the different parameters at times to draw unauthorized information• Unavailability of source code is a major challenge to white-box testing
Web Services Testing• Testing of Web services is useful to prevent late detection of errors, which requires complex and costly repairs.• Testing enables the detection of errors, evaluation, and approval of system qualities at an earlier stage.
Web Services Testing includes the following tasks• Generate the client or skeleton code for the web service• Define the required test inputs• Invoke the web service using the client or skeleton code• Client or skeleton code generation and response verification• Verify that the actual response is similar to that of the expected outcome
Web Services Test Automation: Framework, Challenges & Benefits
Web Services Testing Tools• There are various web services testing tools available, such as ManageEngine, QEngine, SoapUI, TestMaker, WebInject toolsets etc. • These tools are built on open source tools/libraries/frameworks and thus help reduce overall costs and help increase automation
efficiency by minimizing initial coding effort
Web Services Test Automation Framework Features• Flexible test suites and test cases can be configured• Enables test script creation with minimal coding effort• Instantly sets the headers and assertions for SOAP requests• Easily parses the XML requests with inputs• Minimal or no scripting required from the end user
Benefits by Adopting Web Services Test Automation Frameworks• Improves performance and reliability of the SOA• Eases testing of both SOA-based and REST API-based web services• Supports test execution of web services in a cloud environment• Ensures 100% Functional Test coverage
