what is the best way to fake a soap web service call? I want to integrate my webservice call in the later part of implementation, when the third party webserver is ready. Should I use a dummy DAO class or create a dummy WSDL and use it?
Any suggestions?
thanks in advance.

I'm new to the Mulesoft. Currently we have a requirement that need to use Mulesoft to expose a WSDL for Salesforce to call. When Salesforce call this web service, it will transform some account information and Mulesoft will load them to a MySQL table. Could anyone help how can I create this? Thank you!
Definitely... As Nuno said you need to use CXF component in Mule to expose your SOAP webservice.. Actually using Mule platform you can able to expose any kind of Web Service you required like (Soap,Rest) that other applications can able to read ..
Take a look into an easy way of creating the webservice and exposing the WSDL :- http://training.middlewareschool.com/mule/soap-code-first-build/
To publish a SOAP service you should use the CXF component (reference). Take a look into the documentation Publishing a SOAP API to have an ideia in how to begin your flow.
Please take some time to have a quick look into the Mule User guide, since it explains the essentials to start developing with Mule. You will need it to learn how to interact with MySQL too (Database connector).
my GUI app communicate with taht webservice. for example
at GUI,
enter number : '1'
then the webservice send back
price : $10
quantity : 30
currently, the vendor webservice is not yet finished. but i need to test my GUI wheter the design looks good for the 'price' and 'quantity' column.
sorry that i am newbie in soapui and have no idea how to start, although i finished reading the tutorial.
Do I need to create a mockup webservice to start?
i got a webservice link from vendor (.asmx)
i open the .asmx link at IE and got the send and request xml format.
Can i make use of that xml in soapui? and how?
check out http://www.soapui.org/Getting-Started/mock-services.html to learn how to create a mock service from a wsdl.
If you do not have access to the vendor wsdl then you can use any other wsdl and create a mock service using that wsdl and just replace the xml with something your GUI expects.
Also, as your gui makes a call to the webservice, you would need to update the web service endpoint in your Application to point to the mock service.
Now just start up your mock service and away you go..
I'm trying to use the GetPostCodeDetailsByPlaceName method from this wsdl. I can't figure out how the parameters should go. Am I looking at this the wrong way or is it incomplete?
I've tried guessing a ton of things like:
This and
this
even
this
Anyone make any sense of it? Thanks.
Since this web service has a WSDL, it is a SOAP based web service, not a RESTful web service. You can use Apache Axis to generate a WS client based on the WSDL, or you can use a tool like SoapUI to invoke the web service.
WSDL = SOAPWADL = REST
Hence the thread title itself is invalid!!!
We have an application built using Springs/Hibernate/Springs-MVC/.
Now we want to provide RESTful services, planning to use Springs MVC. My question is, is it better to expose the service API directly as Rest Service or write a new Pojo Layer on top of the Service Layer and expose that ?
Will appreciate your insights. Thanks.
I am pretty sure you would want to have a top layer so you can only expose what you want to expose from your Web Service to the outside.
I want to access a inventory system which is accessible through webservice, What is the best way to integrate, I thought of directly expose the entity facade as a web service using #WebSerive it's possible but don't know whether it's a good approach or not, need some advice.
Thanks.
You could eventually define the methods to be exposed in the same class (or maybe create a wrapper).
My understanding is that you want to consume a web service i.e. to implement a web service client. My recommendation would be to use JAX-WS for this. See :
A Simple JAX-WS Client in the Java EE 5 Tutorial
