Test the Web service
This particular sample uses a simple XML schema to define the Web service, so Web Services Explorer provides the easiest way to test the service.
To test the Web service using Web Services Explorer:
Procedure
- Select MyCompany-ProductServices.wsdl.
- Right-click the WSDL file and select Web Services > Test with Web Services Explorer.
- In the Navigator view, expand ProductServices > GetProductInformation.
- An input form is displayed in the right pane. Enter a valid store id in the StoreIdentifier field and specify products in the ProductSKU fields. It is possible to add more than one ProductSKU parameter.
- Click Go to submit the Web Service request.
- In the lower right pane, the response to the Web service request is displayed. Select the Source link to view the actual request and response. If you have successfully created the inbound Web service, you should see the product information displayed.
