Chapter 2. The Sample Project
In this book, we follow a hands-on approach for learning web services testing with soapUI. We strongly recommend you to have your computer with you while reading the book and try out the test scenarios which will be described throughout this book.
In this chapter, we will be covering the following topics:
Getting the project environment ready
Designing the web services
Implementing the web services
Deploying the web services
As the first step of hands-on learning, we will introduce a sample project in this chapter. Our objective is to build a simple yet comprehensive project which covers the considerable amount of features related to web services testing. We will design and build a sample project with a few web services. We start from scratch, following the code-first web service development approach where we write Java classes first and then deploy them in a web service container.
Tip
There are two ways of developing web services; contract-first and code-first approaches...
