Make SOAP requests from Postman + Web Service Testing
SOAP requests containing XML are still popular today. In Postman, SOAP is not natively supported (meaning that there is no support for generating SOAP requests in Postman), but as SOAP requests run over HTTP, you can use Postman. Many already use Postman for dealing with REST APIs and GraphQL API and don't want to switch between multiple tools.
If you are solely using SOAP-based APs, maybe Postman is not the best tool for the job.
In this video tutorial, I will show you how you can run a simple SOAP request with Postman, use variables to make your SOAP body dynamic, and write some API tests after parsing the XML response body.
One popular alternative to Postman with natively supports SOAP requests and parse WSDL files is SoapUI. You can use SoapUI to generate your request body and manually paste it in Postman if you prefer to use Postman for working with SOAP.
You can download the free opensource version of SoapUI from here: https://www.soapui.org/downloads/soap...
