Testing the Sentry WSDL Policy
After creating a WSDL Policy on Sentry, administrators will want to test the policy. We recommend using the free
edition of the SOAPSonar Service Testing tool from Crosscheck Networks to generate the SOAP messages to
test the Sentry policies.
For assistance with SOAPSonar, please contact
support@crosschecknet.com
.
1. Obtaining SOAPSonar from Crosscheck Networks
1. You can obtain the free SOAPSonar Personal Edition from:
http://www.crosschecknet.com/download/soapsonarpersonal.php
2. SOAPSonar runs on Windows only and requires the .NET 2.0 (or later) Framework.
3. Installation is straight forward. Install with full admin rights and activate online or via email.
2. Loading the WSDL into SOAPSonar
1. Launch SOAPSonar and enter the link to the generated WSDL on Sentry within the “Capture WSDL”
field. Click the capture button to the right of this field to retrieve the WSDL from Sentry.
