Parasoft SOAtest Benefits
The tool is part of Automated Code Flow. It helps in SQA and Automotive Certification.
View full review »It used to take a couple of days to run several scenarios of the billing project at AOL. I was able to automate a collection of 72 APIs and the back-end batch jobs, so as to run the whole thing in under 30 minutes.
View full review »Parasoft SOAtest has improved the quality of our automated web services, which can be easily implemented through service chaining and service virtualization.
The best feature to integrate with third party tools is the integrated plug and play without any rework, which makes it more valuable than any other tools.
Parasoft SOAtest has more visibility in regards to testing support data and reporting mechanisms.
Through Parasoft SOATest, we can automate our scenarios in a data driven format, which shows there is no rework on scripts. We only need to update the test data and run for a number of scenarios.
Advantageous Points:
- Easy handling of RESTful APIs/SOAP calls.
- Getting the data on the API performance side, such as response time and segregation of failed API issues based on returning code captured by fault injections.
- Comparison of current responses with baseline response to figure out issues in case of failure with an exact location point.

It enabled an easy integration of our adjacent platform that was for full automation. We did reach over 97% automation with the use of this tool. It was extremely lightweight.
The only unfortunate part is that as the organization no longer exists. Now there are different groups managing the tool.
Parasoft is not becoming the tool of choice for the next generation of software that we're building.
View full review »1. In our project we have to work with multiple tools like FTP, Database, Web services and Java. Parasoft is a bundle of these tools. With just one click I can access any utilities mentioned above. Currently it's saving lots of my time.
2. Parallel run is one of the significant features of Parasoft which saves more effort in my current project by executing the same regression package in different environments in parallel.
3. Parasoft Console logs are very detail and precise. It helps us to to understand the issue quickly and easily. A normal QA person can understand the logs.

We moved from the Waterfall/V-model to Agile a couple of years back. With SOAtest, we are able to test features in every sprint, quickly and efficiently.
We use SOAtest to test the interfaces of maybe a dozen back-end services, simulating multiple, different points of sale. For example, a customer web shop, a sales agent application, sales machines, or mobile apps.
Service interfaces are continually integrated and updated within SOAtest. We test most front-end features first with manual tests, and then integrate them with validations into SOAtest scenarios.
Before using SOAtest, we had a huge delay in acceptance testing due to the amount of manual regression tests that we had to do.
It improved my project ROI in various portions of the testing life cycle.
View full review »It has allowed us to build a large library of repeatable automated tests that are able to be quickly executed on demand. This builds a solid foundation for future initiatives expanding into a more continuous integration and the agile methodology adoption.
View full review »The testing time is shortened because we generate test data automatically with SOAtest.

It provides easy handling of RESTful API's and figuring out exact API scalabilty, responses, and failed API's, returning code captured by the fault injections.

As a test consultant, I have been able to deliver high quality automated testing solutions to our clients using SOAtest in a quick manner. For example, I have been able to implement a test suite that automatically generates and executes thousands of test cases directly from formal specifications for a web service validating fixed length messages on a large number of syntactic, semantic and business rules.

It provides us with fast(er) test results, more predictable results and automatic (regression) test runs outside the employee workstations. This tooling made us more agile and more ready for continuous integration. We use the night hours to run different regression tests over systems, for which we only need to check the results in the morning.
We don’t have to manually create .EDN and .XML messages. We can do this with just one click now. This drastically decreases the time that is required to create these messages.
View full review »We can now test as early as possible, so we are achieving better control over our components.
View full review »Achieved testing middleware services and automating them with the features in SOATest. API testing is made easy. Automation and regression test suite was achieved without the need to write much code.
View full review »It provides easy handling of RESTful API's and figuring out exact API scalability, responses, and failed API's, returning code captured by the fault injections. We also used other utilities provided by Parasoft like, Datasource, Extension tools and DB tools which reduces most of our manual effort and increased the requirement coverage in automation.
The beauty of Parasoft SOA test tool is that it will support more scripting languages based on QA engineer comfort.

It totally gives control to the end user to play with data and deploy the changes directly and that reflects in the application.

Using this tool, we were able to set up a nightly, still growing, company-wide regression test -- dramatically decreasing time being spent on (manual) regression testing.
View full review »SOATest provided a platform for automated testing and creating an enriched automated regression suite.
View full review »One key feature of using SOAtest tool is that it provided us early entry in testing cycle without any services. SOAtest provided a solution of testing codes and integrated services before any solid application is developed.
