while digging around on my own for an answer to http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2009/03/msg00020.html I found BBTEST_SOAP in some source files. Unfortunately I could not find anything in the documentation regarding SOAP requests. What does it do? How does it work? What's the status of implementation?
It's in the 4.3.0 code. Here's the man-page describing it:
soap[=COLUMN];URL;SOAPMESSAGE;[expected_data_regexp|#digesttype:digest] Send SOAP message over HTTP. This is identical to the "cont" test, except that the request sent to the server uses a Content- type of "application/soap+xml", and it also sends a "SOAPAction" header with the URL. SOAPMESSAGE is the SOAP message sent to the server. Since SOAP messages are usually XML documents, you can store this in a separate file by specifying "file:FILENAME" as the SOAPMESSAGE parameter. E.g. a test specification of soap=echo;http://soap.foo.bar/baz?wsdl;file:/home/foo/msg.xml;. will read the SOAP message from the file /home/foo/msg.xml and post it to the URL http://soap.foo.bar/bas?wsdl
Note that SOAP XML documents usually must begin with the XML
