    Hi richie

    Thanks for your answer. I have managed to create a script for this. I have used the code on this page. I used XmlSluper() to combine the messages on the queue to 1 big xml. Then I did all my checks (comparing source and target). When I need to test I request the developers to stop the adapter, so that I can pick up the messages. We might create a separate queue in the future for testing purpose.

Hey Said,

I can probably help to answer this, but i'm struggling to think cos i have manflu at moment.

First thing i need to ask. How are the messages transformed? Are you using an ESB to do the transformations? Second, is the message exchange pattern asynch or synch messaging? If asynch, then youll need your developers to generate an api for you to use to test your stuff as you wont get a response. Even with synch messaging (which does generate a response) it might not give you what you need to test it, so additional apis enabling you to test might still be required.

Waiting on your response,

Cheers,

richie
