MR Mukund R. Software Engineer Intern Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 6/12/2026 "Streamlined API Testing with an Intuitive Interface" 4.5/5 What do you like best about SOAPUI? I use SOAPUI for testing APIs, and I find the user interface very easy for all developers. It's tough using the terminal and writing curl commands, but SOAPUI provides a cleaner interface, allowing us to test APIs with URLs, HTTP methods, request bodies, and headers. Importing all the endpoints from the codebase is unbelievable; it saves a lot of time by automatically fetching all the endpoints to test. This feature is especially handy for onboarding new team members, as it saves time by importing all endpoints and relevant details. The initial setup is very easy, even for beginners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about SOAPUI? If someone doesn't have SOAPUI on their system and wants to test something locally, they need a curl script to run in their terminal. But SOAPUI doesn't provide capabilities to fetch curl based on test cases. Also, when importing data from a service file, it won't update the request body values; we need to provide the values ourselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is SOAPUI solving and how is that benefiting you? I use SOAPUI for testing APIs. It simplifies the process with an easy interface, eliminating the need for curl commands. Importing endpoints saves time and helps new team members onboard faster by automatically fetching test details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Software Engineer Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 10/31/2022 "SoapUI- Super friendly tool to test API's" 5/5 What do you like best about SOAPUI? I have used SoapUI for end to end API testing of REST,SOAP endpoints and load testing.We in our organization generally do load testing of our applications through SoapUI to check it's performance. It automatically creates a project under test and the project can be saved for future uses. My overall experience is very satisfying as I am very happy with the features the tool provides while testing any applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about SOAPUI? It it bit slow to setup new project. It has a complex UI for finding all features and have to go to menus to search for it. For collaboration on single project we need to purchase pro version for the whole team which is quite expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is SOAPUI solving and how is that benefiting you? Any type of user (Beginners or experts) can easily adopt to SoapUI's user interface in few hours. We can send/receive multiple API calls and responses from different API's by just executing a single test suite. It is best for asynchronous web services testing. All the saved projects are organized so that user does not need to load the projects every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 1/18/2024 "Very useful tool to perform API testing" 5/5 What do you like best about SOAPUI? Soap UI has a very simple UI, which can easily be understood by new users also. It is a good tool to validate and test SOAP web services by a simple import of WSDL file. Best part is that test cases can be written and automated using SOAP UI in XML format, where data driven testing is also possible. It is easily integrated with other automation testing tools like Selenium and TestComplete for automation testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about SOAPUI? In some test scenarios, Groovy scripting needs to be done, and that can need a hands-on for users who are unaware of coding. Other than that, everything else is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is SOAPUI solving and how is that benefiting you? Our client had both front-end application as well as back-end APIs that needed to be tested. So for testing these SOAP web services, we used SOAP UI to create and execute test cases that can automatically and later validated the response XML. SOAP UI is a very powerful tool to accomplish testing for SOAP web services by connecting it to automation tools like Selenium. It has a very intuitive interface and with a little knowledge of XMLs and Groovy scripting, API test cases can be automated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
