Configuring SOAtest as an MCP Server

You can configure AI-powered code editing tools like Copilot and Windsurf to use SOAtest as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Once configured, those tools can use SOAtest directly. This works with both the SOAVirt WAR and desktop server. This feature requires a license that has "LLM Integration" enabled.

Configuring the SOAtest MCP Server

You need to configure your tool to access SOAtest as an MCP server by providing it the connection point <INSTALL_DIR>/soavirt/mcp/sse. You can do this a couple ways.

Adding it to Your Configuration

You can add the connection point to your configuration. For example:

"mcp": {
  "servers": {
    "soatest": {
      "url": "http://localhost:9080/soavirt/mcp/sse"
    }
  }
}

Adding it with VS Code

You can add the SOAtest MCP server connection point using the VS Code CLI. For example:

Linux

code --add-mcp '{"name":"soatest","url":"http://localhost:9080/soavirt/mcp/sse"}'

Windows

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\bin\code" --add-mcp {\"name\":\"soatest\",\"url\":\"http://localhost:9080/soavirt/mcp/sse\"}
