How can I do a SOAP post using RestAssured ?

[Jon Thor Austen]

I am new to web services testing, but I haven't been able to find any information on your site or examples in the forum of how to do a SOAP request using RestAssured.

 

Given this webservice below, can anyone provide a most basic example of POSTing a SOAP envelope and getting a response using RestAssured??

SOAP is just XML so you can parse it and send it just as you would with standard XML with REST Assured. Other than this there's no special support for SOAP.

Thanks, I figured it out:

String xml = given().request().header("SOAPAction","authenticate")

     .contentType("application/soap+xml; charset=UTF-8;").body(myEnvelope).when()

     .post( "/myserviceuri/mynamedport" ).andReturn().asString();

I needed to pass the SOAPAction header (defined in the WSDL) in order to do it.
