REST Mock Service with SSL is available in SoapUI 5.4.0

[chantal2018]

Does anyone know if REST Mock Service with SSL is available in SoapUI 5.4.0? I configured SSL Settings to Enable Mock SSL. When I hit the mock service endpoint with https, this error shows at the bottom:

javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Unrecognized SSL message, plaintext connection?

Thank you.

Hi @chantal2018,

It looks like it's available:

Hi Tanya,

The link you provided is the instruction for SOAP mock service. I used the same instruction and it only works for SOAP mock service but not REST mock service. Please confirm. Thank you.

Hi

We are also in the progress of trying to setup a mock REST Service over SSL, we have followed the guidelines on the website (which do appear to be geared at SOAP). However when starting the Mock Service it does not appear to serve out over HTTPS. 

Please can someone provide clarification whether this is supported in 5.4.0 so that we can decide whether we need to look at different approaches for our testing.

Kind regards,

Richard

Hi all,

Also encountering the same issue and error message when trying to connect to REST mock service via SSL.

Could someone from Smart Bear provide guidance or clarification on this issue?

Best,

Jak

I also noticed these behaviors:

1. After changing SSL Settings (File>Preferences), Save Preferences does not take the changes. I have to exit and reopen SoapUI

2. Hitting https://locahost:8443/xxx, I can tell the mockservice presents the certificate for SSL handshake (SSL Info tab showing 2 certs). The response says "There are currently 1 running SoapUI MockServices". For some reasons, the mockservice does not listen on 8443 (https) but only 8080 (http). Again, I don't have this problem with SOAP mockservice.

Thank you.

Hi Guys,

I've reviewed the documentation - it looks like there is no support for SSL in Rest Mock Service in SoapUI OS.

ReadyAPI provides this feature. So, it's worth requesting a trial:

Hi,

Thank you for the response and clarification. It is a shame that it isn't supported as it is a really important feature to be able to test. Is there any plans to include this feature in future releases of SoapUI OS? 

Thanks

Hi Tanya,

Is it feature available in SoapUI Pro as well?

Thank you.

As far as I see, this feature is part of the ServiceV tool.

Richard, at the moment, I cannot say when and whether this feature is implemented in SoapUI OS.
