We are happy to release this intermediate version with several key improvements

n either from inside SoapUI
or with one of the IDE/Maven/CommandLine plugins.This opens for a number of usag
e scenarios, including:
- Rapid Prototyping of WebServices; generate a complete static mock implementati
on from a WSDL in seconds
and add dynamic functionality using Groovy.
- Client testing/development; create mock implementations of desired operations
set up a number of
sample responses (including attachments and custom http-headers) so clients can
be developed/tested without
access to the "live" services. Responses can be cycled, randomized or selected w
ith XPath expression from
incoming request
- Test-Driven Development; Create SoapUI TestSuites/TestCases against MockServic
es before/during the actual
services have been/are being implemented
* New/Improved Tool Integrations for JBossWS "wsimport" and Oracle wsa
* Improved WSDL-inspector shows tree/outline view over complete contract with "d
rill-down" functionality
* SSL-inspection shows peer certifacte information for responses received using
https
* Generate TestSuite action to generate a complete TestSuite for all operation i
n an interface
* Improved property-expansion allows XPath expression directly in property-expan
sion syntax
* New Not-SOAP-Fault assertion
* Possibility to expand received MTOM attachments for schema compliance
* Possibility to override attachment Content-IDs
* Possibility to add default schemas for validation
* Possibility to run WS-I validations using commandline tools
* Possibility to set log-tabs history

As always, please make backups of your project files before testing and let us k
now if you have any issues!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2006-11-12 : 1.6 final release
We are extremely happy to finally release SoapUI 1.6 final which introduces a la
rge number of
fixes and many minor improvements since the beta2 release, including;
* Added exclusion list to proxy settings (comma-seperated)
* Added 2 context properties available when load-testing:
- ThreadIndex : the index of the created thread... this value will never change
for a given TestCase during its run time..
New threads will simply get an incremented index... the mod of this value could
for example be used as an index into a data-file
(to handle changes in number of threads)
- RunCount: tells how many times the TestCase has been run by its thread (not in
total) during the current LoadTest
* Added initial support for unzipping gzipped response messages, ie messages wit
h a Content-Type or Content-Encoding ending with "gzip".
Thanks to Diego Banda.
* Added request-level property to inline attachment content in response editor (
as in SoapUI 1.5)
* Improved saving of projects to not corrupt files on out-of-memory (saving now
first saves to an in-memory buffer
which is written to file if no errors occur..)
* Fixed validation of derived types in xml-editors
* Fixed automatic adding of TestStep Status assertion to newly created loadtests
,
* Added option to ignore case in Contains/NotContains assertions
* Improved support for automatic validation by adding an option to not send inva
lid requests
* Added support for automatic validation of request/response messages in editors

thanks to Michael Vorburger! ("Preferences / UI Settings / Validate Request / Re
sponse")

ttings / Attachment Parts")
* Added [Tools] button to all Tools dialogs which opens "Preferences / Integrate
d Tools" for setting tool paths
* General dialog improvements; Escape closes and F1 shows online help if availab
le
* Fixed validation of SOAP mustUnderstand/encodingStyle attributes in entire mes
sages
* Added possibility to edit response message and revalidate with Alt-V (includin
g assertions)
* Added possibility for custom background image in desktop. Just place a soapui-
background.gif/jpg/png in the
SoapUI bin directory (at last :-), Thanks to Roger Sundberg
* Added option to open TestCase editor when adding requests to a TestCase
* Updated to commons-ssl-0.3.0.jar
* Fixed caching of attachments to now be saved in the soapui-project file (compr
essed)... this makes
portability of soapui-projects with attachments much simpler... The attachment-f
older setting has been
removed.
* Fixed property-expansion when running xpath-assertions and property-transfers
from within their
editors.
* Fixes password-input fields to be masked

1.0b1 release - 2005 09 14
This is the first public release and I'm sure there will problems related to
WSDL importing, XML Validation, etc. (SoapUI has been tested rather extensively
only with doc/literal services in a J2EE environment and running under WinXP).
Please have patience and notify me any problems together with WSDL's, messages,
project-files, etc. so these can be fixed as soon as possible. Thanks!
Get started by running one of the SoapUI scripts in the bin folder..
Good Luck and happy soaping!
