In SoapUI, the SOAP projects mostly use WSDL services as a primary resource. It is not necessary to add a WSDL file, but if you do this, the testing process will become easier since the WSDL file usually contains all necessary information about the web service you want to test.

Creating a Soap Request from WSDL and sending it Step 1: Get WSDL Text from URL. Step 2: Create list of methods from WSDL. Step 3: Create list of ports for a method from WSDL. Step 4: Create Soap Request-Dummy for a method and port from WSDL. Step 5: Send Soap Request.

WSDL stands for Web Services Description Language and it's fundamental for web services within the SOAP protocol. It offers a way for service providers to describe the basic format of requests to their systems, regardless of the application-level protocol they use.

SOAP uses service interfaces to expose its functionality to client applications. In SOAP, the WSDL file provides the client with the necessary information which can be used to understand what services the web service can offer. REST use Uniform Service locators to access to the components on the hardware device.

In summary, SOAP is a protocol for exchanging messages between systems. WSDL is a language for describing the interfaces of web services. SOAP messages use various protocols, and WSDL can describe the protocols of a web service.

WSDL files are central to testing SOAP-based services. SoapUI uses WSDL files to generate test requests, assertions and mock services. WSDL files define various aspects of SOAP messages: Whether any element or attribute is allowed to appear multiple times.

Part of the magic is the Web Services Description Language (WSDL). This is another file that's associated with SOAP. It provides a definition of how the web service works, so that when you create a reference to it, the IDE can completely automate the process.

The WSDL Generator component is not essential for using SOAP. Administrators can still write service calls to Content Server in SOAP if needed.
