Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is more than just a new name for web services. The reality is that SOA implementations are a combination of web components, mid-tier components, as well as back-end and legacy systems. Enterprises are using SOA to integrate disparate systems into cohesive business processes by reusing in-tact systems and leveraging messaging and integration.
The challenge of testing the SOA is that processes flow across application stacks and technologies. Unlike preceding generations of client-server and mainframe systems, SOA systems are not screen-centric but integration-centric. This poses a unique challenge for testing methodologies which rely heavily on screen verification to validate the integrity of the entire process.
