The document discusses two main standards for web services - REST and SOAP. It provides details on how each one works and how data is handled. It also outlines steps for building a framework for web service automation, including creating classes to represent requests and responses, a SOAP client, and tests to validate responses. Examples of requests and responses are given for login and user creation operations.

from sketch

2. Web services?

4. Two main standards for web services
• REST
• SOAP

5. REST
• Rather an architecture style, not a standard
• Data and functionality are considered resources and are accessed
using Uniform Resource Identifiers
• Works over HTTP (CRUD)

6. SOAP
• Pure standard
• Relies on XML information set for its message format
• Based on sending/receiving messages

8. <?xml version="1.0"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
<soap:Header/>
<soap:Body>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

11. How to build
a framework

12. • Create interaction between end user and a framework
• Fill XML template with data
• Send XML request to server
• Validate XML response from server and return it to user
• Create a class responsible for parsing response

13. • Create a class representing XML template
• Associate class with XML template
• Create a util that fulfills XML template with a data from class
• Create Soap Client based on javax library
• Create class simulating response from server

14. Creating tests

15. Assertions

16. Login into application. Request
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="
http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<Authenticate xmlns="urn:MySOAPService">
<userName>admin</userName>
<password>admin_password</password>
</Authenticate >
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

17. Login into application. Response
<AuthenticateResponse>
<Status>OK</Status>
<session>sdlkfjJISDUhklds67skadjli</session>
</AuthenticateResponse>

18. Create a user. Request
<CreateUser xmlns="urn:MySOAPService">
<userName>dart</userName>
<password>dart_password</password>
<email>dart@uni.com</email>
</CreateUser>

19. Create a user. Response
<CreateUserResponse>
<Status>OK</Status>
<UserId>52345</UserId>
</CreateUserResponse>

20. Go beyond

21. • Continuous Integration
• End to end automation in case of desktop and web
architecture
