SoapUI and its Pro version, ReadyAPI, are widely used tools for integrating, verifying, and testing web services. They are highly scalable and configurable, allowing for custom test script creation and automation of various test activities. Users have found SoapUI useful in validating complex analysis platforms, establishing baselines for customization, and verifying APIs across multiple products with different interfaces like SOAP, REST, AMF, and JDBC.

Yahoo's Technical Account Management team relies on SoapUI to analyze SOAP messages and troubleshoot issues with ad platforms. Developers, integrators, and technical product managers use SoapUI for testing, automation, and support purposes. ReadyAPI is the go-to tool for API testing, making it easy to create and manage tests. It helps in verifying breakages, tracing back problems to ensure correct data returns, validating endpoint functionality, and load testing with specific scenarios using production data.

ReadyAPI supports API testing throughout the digital transformation process from prototyping to deployment. It is also used for API test automation and integration with Jenkins. Moreover, it assists in importing and structuring web services, API mockups, functional testing, security testing, deploying code to the cloud using containers, and integrating with third-party tools like Bamboo. With its comprehensive features for SOAP and REST service testing, ReadyAPI is recommended for a wide range of API testing needs.

Swagger Integration: Many users have praised the ability of SoapUI and ReadyApi to read in endpoints for a restful web service via a Swagger page or definitions file. This feature has been described as extremely helpful, with reviewers appreciating the time-saving aspect of not having to figure things out directly or rely on specs to build their requests. Additionally, the ability to easily update endpoints when they change was seen as a valuable feature.

Groovy Functions: Users have found the addition of groovy functions in SoapUI and ReadyApi to be very useful. They appreciate being able to use a programming language with Java libraries, which provides them with much more flexibility in how they process results and build follow-up requests.

Auto-generation of Test Cases: The auto-generation of test cases in SoapUI Pro has received high praise from users. It gives them a good head start on their testing efforts by building a set of tests that cover at least the happy path scenarios. Users also appreciate the visual guide provided by the test case GUI, which helps them structure their suites and scenarios effectively.

Cons:

  1. Lacking User Interface and Experience: Some users have found SoapUI's user interface to be confusing, old-fashioned, and not user-friendly. They have expressed the need for enhancements in terms of design and usability.
  2. Slow Performance: Several users have experienced slow performance with SoapUI, particularly when loading projects, switching between tabs, and during startup. They have also encountered errors related to insufficient memory, resulting in frustration and delays.
  3. Limited JMS Support and Third-Party Tools Dependency: Users have mentioned that SoapUI relies on an outdated 3rd party program called HermesJMS for JMS interactions. This limitation restricts their ability to run parallel test suites efficiently. Additionally, they have pointed out the limited support for JMS and the need for third-party tools for AMF method discovery.

SoapUI is used mainly in the QA departement to test web services i.e. REST and SOAP. I know it is being used in my departement and in other departement Solve test automation problem and performance testing. not very happy with the load test module
  • Records Rest requests, easy way to record them and make functional testing easy
  • Records Soap requests, , easy way to record them and make functional testing easy
  • Changing parameters on the requests
  • Assertion on responses easy too and user can save responses
  • Rest Mocking is very nice feature to start testing early and give early feedback
  • Sometimes it is not easy to maintain, work flow testing is not intuitive
  • Json assertion not very easy to do
  • Caching responses does not help getting accrate performance numbers
  • Security testing still something new
Easy to learn and to use. but sometimes buggy and they are not very responsive to fixing bugs. Also user community is not very big yet
  • Positive repeatable steps, easy to learn
  • Positive employees more efficent and effective
  • Negative not very good customer service from their side
  • Positive help us have more coverage -> more automation -> better quality
Compared with HP Service Test: selected SoapUI as it was way cheaper and easier to learn . Also, I always had bad customer service experience with HP so decided to a different route.
Previous experiance. I have not had to submit new tickets so I am not sure if it is getting better
