Most of the times while testing we come across the term 'Web Service' and we wonder what exactly is it? Web Service is a system designed to communicate between two machines, electronic of-course over the network. these are designed using different languages, methods etc of which the most common are REST, WSDL.
We as QAs are many times given a requirement to test the web services.Now the question comes up to our mind at first is that why do I need to test a web service? By testing a web service we validate the response coming and the time it takes to fetch the response.
The second question that comes up is how can we test a web service? The testing of web service can be done by various ways like Test pages / HTML Harness created by the developers, tools like Fiddler, soapUI, soapUI Pro, Test Maker etc.
