const envelope = `
<soap:Envelope ...>

        <userId>1</userId>
        <items>
          <item>
            <productId>1</productId>
            <quantity>2</quantity>
          </item>
        </items>
      </order>
    </CreateOrder>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>`;
Endpoint/api/soap

Testing Tips

  • •Match exact type structure from WSDL
  • •Namespace prefixes must match
  • •Validate against XSD schema
// Playwright API Testing - SOAP
import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';


test('SOAP request', async ({ request }) => {
  const soapEnvelope = `<?xml version="1.0"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <soap:Body>
    <GetUsers xmlns="http://api.example.com/"/>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>`;


  const response = await request.post('/api/soap', {
    headers: { 'Content-Type': 'text/xml' },
    data: soapEnvelope
  });


  expect(response.ok()).toBeTruthy();
  const text = await response.text();
  expect(text).toContain('soap:Envelope');
});
