SOAtest
OVERVIEW
All-in-One Solution for API & Microservices Test Automation
Stop using scattered tools and accelerate testing with one streamlined AI-enhanced platform. Boosted by intelligent automation, SOAtest unifies API and microservice functional, security, and performance testing so your team can move faster with fewer disruptions and greater confidence.
Easy API Testing With Intelligent Automation
Quickly generate effective test scenarios from recorded traffic or API service definitions using AI. No code required. Test scenarios are automatically parameterized with dynamic data and configured based on patterns observed in existing test scenarios.
Streamlined Test Maintenance
Efficiently update test cases impacted by API changes with SOAtest’s Change Advisor. Easily identify API schema changes and bulk refactor impacted test cases across your test suite.
Rapid Testing Cycles With Faster Feedback Loops
Facing long testing cycles? Boost team agility with AI-based test impact analysis. Automatically execute an optimized subset of tests that exercise recently changed parts of the application.
Shift Left API Security & Performance Testing
Easily integrate automated performance and API security testing into your CI/CD pipeline. Reuse API tests for performance and API security testing to validate high-traffic use cases and prevent security vulnerabilities from reaching production.
Take Control of Dependencies
Integrate with service virtualization in the same interface for full control over service dependencies. Create virtual services, test microservices in isolation, and deploy test environments with any combination of live and virtual services to meet your testing needs.

SOATEST CAPABILITIES
Codeless Simplicity for Continuous Quality
With AI-assisted creation of codeless test scenarios, streamline your API test automation for over 120 message formats and protocols, including microservices, middleware, databases, and more. Go beyond functional testing by reusing test artifacts for security and load testing, reducing risk while validating faster.
By consolidating API testing into a single solution, SOAtest eliminates tool sprawl so you feel efficient while maintaining consistency across all API testing needs.
Next-Level API Testing With AI
SOAtest offers multiple paths for AI-driven test generation to accelerate test creation and reduce technical barriers. The AI Assistant, powered by agentic AI and integrated into the IDE, delivers a conversational experience. It responds to natural language prompts to generate test cases, create test data, and guide users through tasks. Proprietary AI capabilities streamline test development by transforming traffic recordings and user interaction with the UI into API test scenarios based on real-world activity.

Fast, Scalable Testing for Complex Scenarios
Validate microservices faster with built-in support for Kafka, RabbitMQ, and other key protocols. Codeless test creation combined with service virtualization helps simulate dependencies and streamline complex workflows. Gain insights with code coverage from functional tests and accelerate feedback with test impact analysis.

Experience Codeless UI Test Automation
Test web applications effortlessly. Capture user interactions in the browser without scripting, adjust tests with simple clicks, and integrate UI, API, and database validation testing for comprehensive validation.

Accessibility Starts Early
Catching accessibility issues early isn’t just smart, it’s essential for modern web applications. By shifting accessibility testing left, teams can identify and fix WCAG related issues during development, making digital experiences inclusive from the start. With SOAtest, effortlessly repurpose your existing web functional tests for accessibility, no code changes required.

Catch Bottlenecks Before They Happen
Transform SOAtest functional tests into scriptless protocol-based performance tests in just a few clicks. Run tests as soon as APIs are available, then scale with multi-profile scenarios across multiple machines. Integrate seamlessly into CI/CD pipelines. Use Load Test Continuum to track trends and detect API performance degradation before it impacts end users.

Seamlessly Ensure API Security & Integrity
Detect API security vulnerabilities early by repurposing existing functional test cases for penetration testing. This empowers testers with zero security knowledge to provide valuable security findings to developers in-sprint.

Tackle Your Test Data Challenges
Make test data management simpler by quickly accessing and generating realistic test data to drive your test cases. Data can be manually modeled or captured by the Parasoft ecosystem. Reusable data models allow you to manage, mask, and generate any data needed.

Advanced Visibility With Actionable Insights
SOAtest enhances test visibility with HTML, PDF, XML, and customizable reports that provide insights on API coverage, security, and performance. Teams get an embedded view of testing results by integrating SOAtest into CI systems, and a centralized view with trends analysis and advanced analytics by publishing results to DTP.

Built for Modern Development & Test Pipelines
SOAtest supports over 120 message formats and protocols making it ideal for a wide range of use cases and tech stacks. It integrates seamlessly with popular build systems and CI infrastructure and can be containerized or deployed in the cloud for maximum flexibility.

INTEGRATIONS
Plug Seamlessly Into Your Ecosystem
Integrate seamlessly into popular CI/CD pipelines like Jenkins, Azure DevOps, Bamboo, and TeamCity to enable automated, continuous testing throughout the development life cycle. With a flexible extension framework, easily customize SOAtest to fit into any CI/CD system or workflow, ensuring consistent quality gates and efficient test execution at every delivery stage.
