As part of testing a Web service, you can edit the XML in the SOAP request that describes non-built-in data types to debug interoperability conflicts.

View the SOAP request and response messages from a successful execution of an operation
Possibly download the Web service-specific client JAR file that contains the interfaces, classes, and stubs needed to invoke the Web service from a client application.

To invoke a secure WebLogic Web Service from its Home Page, you must first follow these steps:

Configure SSL for WebLogic Server.

Add the following flags to the script that starts up this instance of WebLogic Server:

-Dweblogic.webservice.client.BaseWLSSLAdapter.strictCertChecking=false
-Dweblogic.security.SSL.ignoreHostnameVerification=true

Create a certificate, key, and trusted CA and configure WebLogic Server to use them.

Restart WebLogic Server for the startup flags to take effect.

Invoke the secure WebLogic Web service's Home Page in your browser. The browser will return a message saying the certificate is not trusted.

Load the trusted certificate in your browser. You may need to restart your browser for it to take effect.

Invoke the secure WebLogic Web Service's Home Page again in your browser. You should now be able to test your secure Web Service.
