SoapUI
SoapUI is an open-source web service testing application for service-oriented architectures (SOA) and representational state transfers (REST). Its functionality covers web service inspection, invoking, development, simulation and mocking, functional testing, load and compliance testing. A commercial version, SoapUI Pro, which mainly focuses on features designed to enhance productivity, was also developed by Eviware software. In 2011, SmartBear Software acquired Eviware.[2][3]

SoapUI was initially released to SourceForge in September 2005. It is free software, licensed under the terms of the European Union Public License.[4] Since the initial release, SoapUI has been downloaded more than 2,000,000 times.[5] It is built entirely on the Java platform, and uses Swing for the user interface. This means that SoapUI is cross-platform. Today, SoapUI also supports IDEA, Eclipse, and NetBeans.[6][7]
