Ideas on simulating webservices for local automated testing.
- by novice123
I am testing an app, which talks to different webservices over the internet.
For my automated testing, I don't want to go over the network.
To achieve this, I need to simulate the webservice on my machine using another app.
My initial thought is to record all the requests and responses between client and webservice,
and then just write a simulation app which replays these responses.
The disadvantage here is that everytime the webservice protocol changes a bit, I have to modify all my recorded resposnes.
so I am looking to see if there are more elegant solutions.
have anyone solved a similar problem? any thoughts, suggestion are appreciated.
