Running SOAPUI mock service from Robot Framework

Greetings,

Long time listener, first time caller.

I've built a mock service from within the SOAPUI 3.5 open source application.  It catches SOAP requests from a system under test nicely.

What I'd like to do, is use the service created in the application as a means of invoking an endpoint from within a Robot Framework test script. 

To do this, I must be able to :

1.  build a Java class which will create a SOAP service endpoint listener at runtime
2.  invoke an API to retrieve individual data elements from the received message.

I'm having difficulty with the process required to start the service, and to extract individual data elements from the received message.  I've found a number of good examples of the programmatic use of the SOAPUI API, but so far, nothing exactly like what I'm looking for.

Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Even i am trying to use soapui from robot .But on the basic step i need to send a single xml file and get its response.
    Are you aware how can we do this from soapui using Junit.

    I know to exeute a testsuite from Junit script but not aware of executing one script and getting the responses.

    Any help would be really appreciated.
