"Excellent tool for SOAP API testing"

4.5/5

What do you like best about ReadyAPI?

SOAP UI makes it easy to work with SOAP API services. As long as you know the WSDL address, the endpoints are easily exercised. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ReadyAPI?

There are some quirky behaviors of the UI that can be a little annoying, likely due to the product being written in Java rather than using native Windows UI components. As a result, it sometimes behaves oddly when resizing or using Remote Desktop. Additionally, the start up time can be painfully slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A tool to get others up to speed"

4/5

What do you like best about ReadyAPI?

Protects can be saved along with the content that is being sent to the services. This is useful to be able to educate new staff with examples of content that they can see and review. Basically showing them what the format is and what is required in the calls. Documentation typically never gets created so this helps others learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ReadyAPI?

A little hard at first to figure out the syntax for speed scripts like Groovy. Need good offline content of examples. At work there is no internet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
