Parasoft SOAtest
OVERVIEW
You don’t need to be an API expert to start automating with confidence. Simplify API and microservices testing so your team can overcome skill gaps and move faster. With AI-assisted test creation, codeless workflows, and built-in best practices, less technical testers are able to contribute, helping you scale automation efforts without reinventing the wheel.
Create complete, data-driven test scenarios in seconds. Generate and configure API tests from recorded traffic or natural language, no code required. SOAtest automates parameterization so you can focus on testing, not setup.
Testing AI-driven systems is complex, but now you can validate MCP Servers and the behavior of MCP tools that AI agents rely on codelessly. The AI Assertor and Data Bank tools use NLP, eliminating the need to hard-code business logic, perfect for testing AI system with variable outputs.
Instead of manually fixing broken tests you can see exactly what changed in your API with Change Advisor and quickly refactor affected test cases in bulk.
You don’t need separate tools to validate performance and security. You can reuse your functional API tests to uncover vulnerabilities and performance bottlenecks early—right inside your CI/CD pipeline—so issues never make it to production.
Stop waiting on unavailable or unstable APIs. In the same codeless UI as SOAtest, you can now use Virtualize’s AI Assistant to generate realistic API simulations—making it easy to adopt service virtualization, isolate microservices, and test your APIs without environment blockers.
Long regression test cycles slowing you down? Use Test Impact Analysis to identify which tests matter most after a code change—so you run fewer tests, get faster feedback, and keep your release pipeline moving without sacrificing coverage.
SOATEST CAPABILITIES
Whether you’re just getting started or testing complex, AI-powered microservices, Parasoft SOAtest adapts to your team’s needs. With support for over 120 message formats and protocols—including MCP-based systems—and codeless test creation powered by AI and natural language, SOAtest helps you overcome API testing roadblocks and move faster. Explore how SOAtest gives you complete control across functional, security, and performance testing without added complexity.
SOAtest breaks down barriers to API test automation with multiple AI-powered paths to speed your test creation. Our AI Assistant, embedded right in your IDE, uses natural language conversations to generate tests, create data, and guide you—no coding needed. Plus, proprietary AI transforms real user traffic and UI interactions into realistic API tests, so you can automate smarter and faster.
AI-Driven API TestingValidate 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.
Microservices TestingTest 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.
Web UI TestingCatching 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.
Web Accessibility TestingTransform 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.
Load & Performance TestingDetect 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.
API Security TestingMake 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.
Test Data ManagementAutomatically identify which tests cover your recent changes. Get faster feedback, reduce test cycles, and focus your team’s efforts without re-testing your entire codebase after a change.
Test Impact AnalysisSOAtest 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.
QA Reporting & AnalyticsSOAtest 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.
