Many services use attachments to send and receive data that are not well represented with XML messages (for example, multimedia binary data). SOAtest and Virtualize have multiple tools for working with attachments.
SOAtest and Virtualize can optimize the sending of SOAP messages using MTOM, where any binary element content is sent as MIME attachments instead of being base64 encoded directly within the SOAP envelope. They can also receive and validate binary MIME attachments from MTOM payloads. Attachment Attachment encapsulation format can be configured under the SOAP Client’s Misc tab or tab or the Virtualize Message Responder tool's s Options tab. For more information, see below.
The Attachments Tool enables you to attach binary or XML files to messaging tools. For more information about this tool, see Attachments Tool.
The Attachment Handler tool can be used in conjunction with a SOAP Client or Message Responder to extract and validate attachments from a response message. For more information on configuring the Attachment Handler about this tool, see Attachment Handler.
