ABSTRACT:
SOA testing is a complex and disconcerting computing process. It requires organizations to effectively isolate, check and integrate various components to ensure optimal functionality at the service, persistence and process layers. Without a comprehensive approach to testing, organizations are unable to guarantee that an SOA meets performance standards.
This white paper discusses the processes necessary for effective SOA testing. Explore a step-by-step guide for defining a testing domain, understanding unique organizational needs, and testing all components to ensure that an SOA will be productive. Gain insight into how to overcome the quality issues typically associated with this loosely-coupled infrastructure and gain a strategic advantage when testing through automation and repeatability.
