Chapter 4. Working with Your First TestSuite
In the previous chapter, we discussed the basics of soapUI projects. When you are testing an individual service or a complete service-oriented solution, it is not just sufficient to create a project with multiple SOAP requests and manually execute and validate the responses of them one by one. Instead, we should follow some mechanism to execute our tests in a well organized manner, so that, we could minimize some unnecessary delays and focus on achieving a greater level of test coverage.
soapUI TestSuites are one of the key building blocks in a project which allow us to structure and execute functional tests. In this chapter, we will look into the following high-level topics of building a comprehensive test suite in order to test our sample hotel room reservation system:
Creating a TestSuite
Running the TestSuite
Adding test assertions
Adding properties to the tests
