Basic Authentication Header not included in Soap Request

I am using 3.5 Pro and have a request that clearly shows Username and Password values in the test properties.
The test fails due the the absence of credentials.

What should I do to ensure the creation of the WWW-Authenticate header.

    Hi Brad,

    you probably just need to enable preemptive authentication in the global http settings, by default soapUI requires an authorization challenge before sending these headers.

    Hope this helps!

    Definitely a great clue. Thanks!
