Brian Fitzpatrick commented on JBIDE-6253:
------------------------------------------

Ok, I have delivered the first cut of the tester to org.jboss.tools.ws.ui. When it shows up in the next good JBoss 3.2.next build, you should have a new view menu available - in the JBoss Tools Web Services category you should find "Web Service Tester".

It's a very vertical view, so you'll probably have to move things around to play with it. And I'm open to suggestions on how to reduce the "verticality" of it - whether we move it into an "Editor"-type window or leave it as a view doesn't matter to me. 

It's definitely not bullet-proof, but please note things as you find them. 

However... 
1) I added an Edit button as well as a new "Request Header" tab that is available for JAX-RS. 
2) I added a new "Results Header" tab down below that shows what comes back from the URL connection as well.

I'll see what I can do about adding some kind of UDDI search capability that queries the JBoss Runtime for its UDDI repo to help the user, but I think this is a useful start to a tool anyway. :)

> Though there are testing facilities for web services available in Eclipse, such as the Web Services Explorer (doesn't support JAX-RS) and soapUI (3rd party tool), there has been a call for some rudimentary testing facilities within our tooling as well. 
> This tooling should:
> * Test invoking a JAX-WS service with an incoming SOAP document and show the results
> * Test invoking a JAX-RS service (GET or POST) and show the results
