LISA 2.0Brings Automated Testing Methodology to Web Services

iTKOannounced LISA 2.0, software for Web services testing. Web services aremodularly developed "mini-applications" that can be strung together to supportcomplex business workflows. These reusable apps are the next big thing on theInternet because they can talk to each other using non-proprietary XMLstandards, and they provide a standard communication interface for all kinds oflegacy systems.

  For Web services to be taken seriously inthe enterprise class of applications, they must be tested, tweaked, and readyto run wherever they are deployed. Why isn't automated testing a given? Mostdevelopers will admit that getting a complex automated testing tool simplymeans learning a new language and writing more code.

  LISA 2.0 uses an "inline testing" technologyto sit alongside and talk to any component that can impact a Web service.Inline testing goes beyond simply mimicking expected user behaviors, todiscover the cause and effect of bugs. LISA can uncover and report the exactsource of any Web service problems stemming from Web and app servers, networktransmission, database storage and retrieval, middleware, other applicationsand attached components (such as EJBs or other Web services), all the way downto the most granular Java and XML code level.
