Populating a project from request/response XML Files

Hi all,

I am new to SOAPUI, so please excuse me if I ask fairly basic questions :-) We have a tool developed in house where we can set up all our test cases in a fairly abstract manner, but then we can generate a whole bunch of request/expected response files from those test cases. What is the best way to then populate a SOAPUI project with all of these requests and responses? So given a folder with say 100 requests and associated expected responses, is there some way of automatically reading that in and creating the skeletons of a bunch of test cases within SOAPUI?

Many thanks.

    Hi

    I have the same plan and just wanted to know more about how/what web services testing do.

    I am fully functional UI Automation engineer and wanted to start web services testing using SoapUI. Please some one suggest me that how to start the web services automation testing. My plan is to create a nice framework with below components

    1. Place all the Requests(testcases)
    2. Place all the Responses and map to the relevant Request.
    3. Externalize the input (user) data nothing but parameterization of user data using xml or xls or csv files.
    4. Environment file handling (If we have multiple projects the maintain the project details in global environment file).
    First of all I don't know these things possible in this tool.
    Please some one suggest me and also how to start with as well.

    I have done all the above in functional UI automation testing.

    Thanks in advance
