Web services testing is the process of testing whether your application communicates and accesses functions correctly from the Web by effectively verifying the behavior of web services connected to them.

Some of the popular testing tools used for web services testing are SoapUI, TestingWhiz, SOATest, Postman, etc.

iv. Determine the response XML format
v. Using a tool or writing code to send request and validate the response
