soapUI ProValues and Benefits

soapUI Pro – worth paying forsoapUI is the world’s leading Web Service Testware. With over one million downloads, it’s the de facto tool for SOA testing and available in two editions; a basic Open Source version and the full version soapUI Pro, targeting professional users. Even though the Open Source version is a great award-winning tool, soapUI Pro the right choice for professional users with high demands. The reason is as simple as clear; soapUI Pro is developed to fulfill the needs of a corporate organization such as more advanced testing functionality, productivity focus, team testing support, great usability, world class sup-port and qualified training.

soapUI Pro is a small investment with an immediate pay off. The price model is a yearly license fee including all Software Updates for 12 months. This allows you to always work with the latest release of the software. When a new version of the software is available, just download it. No extra fee is charged!

Advanced functionalityBelow are the most valued and appreciated soapUI Pro features described.

• Data Driven TestssoapUI Pro provides functionality for easily creating and running data driven tests. The time savings are huge; with

soapUI Pro a Test Case can be created in minutes instead of alternatives taking several hours. Yet bigger savings can be made using soapUI Pro for data driven load tests or for test chaining where the result from one test case can be used as input to another test case

• ReportingsoapUI Pro provides extensive reporting functionality including reports on different levels (project, Test Suite,Test

Case …) and different formats like pdf, cvs, xls and xml as well as easy customization options. Use soapUI to create reports and use your valuable resources on something else.

• Team TestingsoapUI Pro provides functionality crucial for team testing. In a project involving several people you often come to a

situation where two team members are updating different test cases at the same time. If you only have one project file it’s impossible to make simultaneous updates and it’s very hard to synchronize the test cases manually.

• Contract CoveragesoapUI Pro provides unique contract coverage functionality. Reliable coverage figures are fundamental for effective

testing; knowing what you have tested and what you haven’t is great support when you shall decide if you have tested enough or where to focus you r efforts next. Coverage metrics are also useful showing compliance to customer require-ments.

• Groovy Script LibrarysoapUI Pro provides functionality enabling reuse of Groovy scripts. Your scripts can be stored in a central library

accessible from any other script within soapUI. This saves you from spending a lot of time on copying and mechanical updates.

• Requirements ManagementsoapUI Pro provides basic functionality for requirements management. You can in an easy way add, remove, edit,

import and export requirements. Links from a requirement to specific test cases can be used to verify that your product fulfills a set of requirements.

• RefactoringsoapUI Pro provides functionality valuable when updating your SOA. If the data structures change, for example

renaming of information elements, soapUI Pro will go through your tests and automatically update all references to the element name in all your tests. This saves time; a change can be made in minutes instead of days or even weeks, and it gives you peace in mind; you know that the name has been changed wherever it’s used.
