    Hi Everyone,

     

    On the Projects screen, you add and manage your API definitions (WSDL, Swagger, RAML, etc), tweak your REST API resources and methods (add or change parameters, etc.) and make test API calls. On SoapUI screen, you create automated functional tests for your APIs.

I like to use the Projects tab to design my REST API test Suite, and each with a test case, and each test case with a test step. Then I right-click the API and then choose "Generate Test Suite" - it puts me into the Soap UI NG pro tab where I can do further work such as groovy scripts at the test suite level, event scripts, Assertion scripts, and what have you. I do notice that my parameter values I put in at the project tab go blank once I switch back to the SoapUI NG pro tab. 

 

I'm new to this tool and REST API testing, for that matter (only recently found there is a difference between a Soap UI test and REST API test). Maybe I will find a way to do everything under the SoapUI NG Pro tab when I get more skilled.
