Web service tester and method of testing web service

摘要

PURPOSE: A web service tester and a method for testing a web service are provided to test the web service by simply making an SOAP(Simple Object Access Protocol) request message with only a WSDL(Web Service Description Language) file of the web service when the web service of a web service server or a client program is realized. CONSTITUTION: A user interface(10) displays the WSDL files, selects the service, a port, and an operation for testing the request generated based on the WSDL file, and inputs a parameter according to the selected operation. The user interface displays an SOAP request message generated by the parameter and an SOAP reply message of the web service server for the SOAP request message, and displays a stress test request of the web service server and a result. A WSDL processing module(20) generates a new request for the test by receiving the WSDL file from the server and helps the user input the parameter for the selected operation. A message processing module(30) displays the SOAP reply message of the server after generating/transmitting the SOAP request message to the server, tests the stress of the server by continuously transmitting the SOAP request message the server, and records the exchanged message.
