ReadyAPI Reviews & Product Details

The best thing is how you can easily perform different kinds of Performance Tests against your APIs. You can use it against both SOAP and REST APIs. Also, there are large variety of options to customize how you want to run your tests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The worst thing is the User Experience of the Application as it is not very intuitive other than that the application is very good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SOAP UI is one of the best tools in the market for API testing, mocking & Automation. It is compatible with both SOAP & Rest requests and supports multiple authentication technologies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SOAP UI requires knowledge of groovy or javascript to create the scripts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use and user-friendly interface. Best tool for API virtualization during development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It takes a little bit of time to start. That is something that needs to be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The huge community support excellent SOAP support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It gives accurate response

Gives the error message correctly when there is any issue in API call Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't think there is any thing that I didn't like using this software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it is good to have functional tests and load tests together Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integration with Jenkins or in the Ci/CD pipeline could be challenging Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The validation feature which let the user aware that the request body is missing some required parameters even before hitting to the URL. This can save a lot of time to dig into what went wrong with the request if we get a bad response. Even a beginner can start with this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface is a little bit confusing if you are a first time user. If you are trying to import a soapUI project as a whole and try to validate a single request, if there is an error inside the project (not necessary inside the test case we are currently working on), it will show a validation error. This sometimes make the user confused. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are using Soap UI for the last 3 years for testing our SOAP services. Soap UI is open source, so no license is required and totally free. Soap UI is best to test API without having any UI. We can validate that we are getting the correct response from the server. We can also save our projects and later use them again. To test the SOAP services we only need to give the WSDL URL and click ok. It will automatically generate an XML. We can also do automation using a SOAP by using the Groovy script and use various assertions to save our time doing the repeated task again and again. We can also set values in custom properties and can access them anywhere in different requests. We can also do load and security tests with SoapUI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Should have some reporting, to easily identify the failed test cases. Otherwise, it is best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easier to create and maintain projects and test suites.

Easy to add APIs and update them.

Provide help with ready to use steps so that you don't have to write too much groovy script.

Assertions are easy to add and verify in latest tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Composite projects maintenance is little tricky.

Sometimes ReadyAPI takes too much memory and becomes slow if working with large projects.

Takes long time to open large projects.

Take some time to open readyAPI and load all the projects.

Moving from Projects to SoapUI bar is slow.

Bar on the top which has ReadyAPI logo is too big. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am using Soap UI from last 2 years for API testing. It reduce API testing time and save lot of time for us. We can also automate our test cases by using in built soap ui functions like groovy script and various assertions. We can test both Soap and Rest api services with Soap UI. We can also save projects for future reference. Only we need to provide the WSDL link and we can test the services. It also have custom properties feature, so rather hardcoding the values in xml we can enter them in custom properties Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometime it is little slow. Should have report features, so we can know how many test cases are passed and failed Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
