Summary
Web services are the individual units of business logic in SOA. In order to test web services, we must possess a good understanding about SOA and web services as well as the associated technological components. This chapter has been dedicated to build that foundation.
We started to look into soapUI, the world's leading and most complete SOA and web services testing tool. We discussed the primary goals and objectives of using soapUI in web services testing. We looked at a bit of history of soapUI and its distribution models. Finally, the steps of installing soapUI on Linux, Windows, and Mac OS were explained.
Now, we have soapUI running on our systems. Let's get our hands dirty with a sample project in the next chapter.
