Is it possible to send request and answer through activeMQ using soapUI? Requ and answ is in JSON

Hey there guys,   I wonder if it's possible to somehow configure soapUI with activeMQ? That would be awesome and save me alot of time. As everyone know it's not easy to find new tools and learn fro...

    That is what I was trying to say. No jms communication from client side i.e., from with in soapui. Client still uses REST service of activeMQ. and Your application must be communicating directly with activeMQ.
    ENDPOINT to be used in soapui
    http://activeMQhost/ip:8161/api/message/TEST?type=queue

    with credentials.

Could use some more specific details on your use case.

 

Do you have a service that you use SoapUI to test, and that service writes to ActiveMQ? Are you looking for a way to build something in SoapUI to query/test that your service wrote successfully to ActiveMQ?

groovyguyExactly I've got service which writes to activeMQ, and I'm  looking for way to build tunnel between soapUI and activeMQ, for example I have requests , and I can send it to activeMQ(server) from queue to specific topic, but that's not the point.

I want to be able to send such requests with soapUI, and also I would like to be able to read results of send requests :| Well it sounds complicated but I would be really happy if it's possible..

 

 

nmraoCommunication of service takes place using activeMQ server, using queue and topic, send data to queue and receive on topic.

I send a request via activeMQ with JSON, and receives a response from with JSON, that is such a protocol.

Is it possible to send such requests via soapUI Ng pro? And also integrate with activeMQ so I can listen to what is posted on the activeMQ topic? If yes that would be great, thank you for your time ;d, perhaps I'm missing something.

 

 

Thank you guys for the support

 

Best regards

Emil

    Emil91: I don't think there will be a native way to do this in SoapUI. Rather, you will likely need to write a groovy script that can interface with ActiveMQ and its consoles. A quick google search shows people have done this previously with groovy and there are examples out there. 


    Here's one that uses JMX and groovy to query ActiveMQ: Listing ActiveMQ queues

     

    The above example seems to list queues, but I am not 100% sure you can read from a queue without popping the message. I am not sure if that would be feasible for a test or not.

    Emil91, you did not clarify to the point of my previous reply.

    Is it that you want to send a plain message over JMS or Is REST over JMS ?

    I know that it is possible to send a plain message or Soap message over JMS.

    What is your use case?

        Emil91, thank for the details.
        In my understanding REST works on HTTP methods. So, how does it communicate over jms of those http methods? That is where it is confusing to me.
