Re: Web Services Testing

[kantharaja t]

Web service testing should be done thru Web Service protocol.

Take the end point URL and SOAP message import it and run

Hello Everyone,

I am testing a web service by creating a web_custom_request in web http/html protocol. The WSDl is not being accepted by the web service protocol so i decided to use web_custom_request.

The issue i am facing is that i get a 401  (Invalid Session ID or Session Expired) error every time i play my script. I have spoken to the developer and they say that there is no need to send a certficate or header with the request.

 

I have used the web_set_user function to tackle this issue but still get the same error and have tried everything else possible by reading material online.

 

FYI: The request i am sending works with the same credentials works in soapUI and gives me a response as well.

 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

Hi Rahul,

You need to create a web_submit_data request and you need to transmit that XML to End point URL.So need to have all the headers and request XML in place.;

You need to add headers using web_add_header() function  which you could get from SOAP UI.

Let me know if you have break through it!!!

Thanks

Pramod

Web services are embedded inside I the http protocol for communications.   If you are conversant with the web virtual user them you can use them for we services as well.  

If you ask the protocol advisor it may also suggest winsock and DCOM, both of which would be onerous to UAE for web services

Can turn on advanced log and trace and paste it here?
Of course mask the data and sensitive information.

it looks like header is missing; you try one of two things
1. try to get exact xml from interface server log.
2. if you have altova xml spy, you can check what exactly you are sending.

Hi Abhishek,
Thanks for your reply. Here are the logs:

Capture the traffic from SOAPUI and compare it with the one sent by your LR script. You can use the capture to create the web service protocol script. You can also try to record by making LR as a proxy between SOAPUI and the application.

Hi Abhishek,

Thanks for your reply. I did add the header to the script but when i replay my script after adding headers i am getting timeout errors. For encountering this i increased the timeout for STEP & RECEIVE to 240 by using web_set_timeout but the web_service_call will still timeout in spite of increasing the time. I will check what i am exactly sending to the server. Hopefully it gives a solution.
