[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-3498) JBoss ESB service testing tools

[Jeff DeLong (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-3498?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12449913#action_12449913 ] 

Jeff DeLong commented on JBIDE-3498:
------------------------------------

In reading the attached pdf I have a few comments:

7. Call mechanisms - should support:
1) inVM
2) ESB Aware client - this tests the queue/provider/listener configuration as well as the service itself
3) JMS Gateway
4) Web services - this later can now be done through other tools such as SoapUI, so it is not really necessary. however if it were easy to provide in a single test tool that would be nice.

8. Entering test data:
1. Typing directly into text box in test UI? 

Not sure how this would work. A service is expecting either Java objects or XML. For Java objects it seems like the user would have to first specify a Java class file, and then the UI would provide the text boxes to enter in data for this class. The ability to support multiple classes would be required. There are also subtleties as far as where the object are in the message (e.g., on the default location, in a named map, etc.) that could complicate this.
