Summary
We dedicated this chapter to create a sample project, which used a few web services to implement a simple hotel room reservation system. We started from scratch and created three Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs). Then we exposed them as web services by deploying in Apache Axis2. These three web services, namely GuestManagementService
, RoomManagementService,
and ReservationService
will be used throughout this book. All our discussions of soapUI will be based on these services. Hence, even if you did not follow the sample project, it is advisable to download WebServicesSample-Deliverable.zip
from http://www.PacktPub.com/support, follow the instructions given in README.txt
to deploy HotelReservation.aar
on Apache Axis2, and get the services ready to try out the soapUI samples which we will discuss in the next chapters.
