Test Scripts for JAX-WS Hello World Service

This folder contains test scripts to interact with the JAX-WS Hello World Service.

Python Test Script

Prerequisites

• Python 3.6 or higher
• pip (Python package installer)

Installation

1. Install Python dependencies:

   Windows:

   cd scripts
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

   Linux/Mac:

   cd scripts
   pip3 install -r requirements.txt
   

Running the Test Script

Make sure the JAX-WS service is running (using Docker or traditional setup).

Windows:

python test_hello_world.py

Linux/Mac:

python3 test_hello_world.py
# OR
chmod +x test_hello_world.py
./test_hello_world.py

What the Script Does

The test_hello_world.py script:

1. Checks WSDL availability - Verifies the service is running
2. Tests with multiple names - Calls the service with predefined test cases
3. Interactive mode - Allows you to enter custom names and see responses in real-time

Example Output

============================================================
JAX-WS Hello World Service Test Client
============================================================

1. Checking WSDL availability...
   WSDL is accessible

2. Testing Hello World Service...

   Calling service with name: 'World'
   Response: Hello World, World!

   Calling service with name: 'Python Client'
   Response: Hello World, Python Client!

   Calling service with name: 'JAX-WS User'
   Response: Hello World, JAX-WS User!

   Calling service with name: 'Docker'
   Response: Hello World, Docker!

3. Interactive Mode
   --------------------------------------------------------
   Enter a name (or 'quit' to exit): John
   Response: Hello World, John!

   Enter a name (or 'quit' to exit): quit

============================================================
Test completed!
============================================================

Using the HelloWorldClient Class

You can also use the HelloWorldClient class in your own Python scripts:

from test_hello_world import HelloWorldClient

# Create client
client = HelloWorldClient()

# Check if service is available
is_available, message = client.check_wsdl()
print(message)

# Call the service
response = client.call_hello_world("Your Name")
print(response)  # Output: Hello World, Your Name!

Troubleshooting

Service Not Available

If you get a connection error:

1. Make sure the Docker container is running:

   docker ps | grep jaxws
   

2. Check if the service is accessible:

   curl http://localhost:8080/jaxws-hello-world/hello?wsdl
   

3. Restart the service:

   docker-compose restart
   

Python Not Found

If you get "python: command not found":

• Windows: Use python or py command
• Linux/Mac: Use python3 command

Dependencies Not Installing

If pip install fails:

1. Make sure pip is up to date:

   python -m pip install --upgrade pip
   

2. Try installing with sudo (Linux/Mac only):

   sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
   

3. Use a virtual environment:

   python3 -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
   pip install -r requirements.txt
