WSDL Project---processing messages

There are several views selected in processing SOAP request and response messages. Let's take a look at these two.

Request Message

• XML --A text view of the standard underlying XML message
  
  the Validate option verifies that the current message found an error:
  
  
  (this line number is always open in the editor)

• RAW --Displays the actual bytes of the last send message including HTTP headers, MIME attachments, and so on:
  
  
  Use this view to check property-expansions, filter results, and so on. The content here should be the same as the main Soapui window at the bottom of the http log:
  
• Outline editor

  Displays a tree view of the underlying XML message:

  (The right column shows the value of the pattern type)

  Here you can edit the value of an existing element/attribute, but you cannot add or remove nodes from an existing tree.

  Form Editor

  The form editor displays the basic requirements for a user-friendly input form, making it significantly easier to enter content in the XML editor:

  Inserting Data

  All editable fields have a right-click menu "Get Data" that will automatically insert Property-expansion to the selected property. For example, if we want to use the project-level "SubscriptionId" subscriptionid field to require Amazon Web services, we can right-click the field in the corresponding form editor:

  Here we select the "SubscriptionId" attribute defined at the project level in our project:

  Response Message

  The response message provides a corresponding view:

  • xml--shows the contents of the XML Response message:

    The right-click menu here is more limited, but you can still edit the actual message to use the relevant assertions and scripts.

  • RAW --Shows the response message for the original byte:

  • Outline (soapui Pro only): Displays a tree view of a read-only response message:

  • Overview (Soapui Pro only): Displays a user-friendly rendering response:

    The URL in the Response message field will be clickable to open the external browser.
