"Update Definition" vs "Refactor Definition"

Hi,
I am always in doubt of which one to use.

Is it possible to make a definition when to use "Update Definition" or the "Refactor Definition" ??

Regards Ivan

    Hi!

    sure - "Update.." simply replaces the WSDL in the project with the new one - and optionally regenerates requests (with limited possibilities to keep old message content). "Refactor" allows you to define how to map the old WSDL to new one - which makes it possible for soapUI to update depending messages, xpath expressions, etc for you.

    Does that help?

    regards!
