Soa testing

What is SOA testing and is that the future of testing, if so how ?

Hi Rajeshi,

Here is the definition and links that you are searching for SOA

[SIZE=-1]A Service-oriented Architecture defines how two or more entities interact in such a way as to enable one entity to perform a unit of work on behalf of another entity. The unit of work is referred to as a service, and the service interactions are defined using a well-defined description language.[/SIZE]

HI,

SOA meens service oriented testing
in SOA testing we are using web services
for webservice we have to create a WSDL

SOA:
SOA provides the means to deliver integrated business applications in a timely fashion with the least amount of intervention to change application code or structure. SOA delivers real, tangible business value

SOA registry is like a reference database of services. It describes what each services do, where are they located and how can they communicate. It’s a central reference of meta-data for services.

SOA workflow allows us to define work flow using the services in SOA registry. We will read more about BPM in the further questions.

Service broker reads the work flow and takes services from the SOA registry and ties them together. Service brokers are normally middleware like EAI (Enterprise application Integration) products. You can get a list of decent EAI from Sun, Microsoft, and IBM etc.

SOA is a thinking, it’s an architectural concept and web service is one of the technical approach to complete it. Web services are the preferred standards to achieve SOA

SOA It’s a logical encapsulation of self contained business functionality.
For instance A ‘order system’ shows a simple ordering system which is achieved by different services like payment gateway, stock system and delivery system coming together. All the services are self contained and logical. They are like black boxes. In short we do not need to understand the internal details of how the business service works. For the external world it’s just a black box which takes messages and serves accordingly. For instance the ‘payment gateway’ business service takes message ‘check credit’ and gives out output does the customer have credit or not. For the ‘order system’ business service ‘payment gateway’ service is a black box.
