ABSTRACT:
The foundation of SOA testing includes selecting the right tool for the job, having a well thought out plan, and sparing no expense in testing cycles or else risk that your SOA will fail out of the gate and thus have no creditability.
Organizations are beginning to roll out their first instances of SOA, typically as smaller projects. While many work just fine, some are not living up to expectations due to quality issues that could have been prevented with adequate testing. You need to take these lessons, hard learned by others, and make sure that testing is high on your priority list when you dive into SOA.
