WCFStorm is a useful tool that was designed in order to provide you with a simple means of fully testing and evaluating the performance of WCF services. WCF services are .NET Framework components specially designed to handle web applications, which use a service-oriented architecture to connect multiple clients around the Internet. In order to begin the operation you first need to enter the address of the item you intend on testing, by simply pasting it into the appropriate field. Alternatively, if you have the WSDL file on your system, you can add that instead and run the procedure directly on your computer.

FEATURES:

General:
· Dynamically invoke and test WCF Services
· Dynamically invoke and test Web services written in any language
· Save your opened service and its test cases into a "project" which can be reloaded anytime
· Dynamically invoke service methods even those containing complex data types
· Load existing client App.config files
· UI-based, dynamic editing of complex data types
· Test multiple WCF and Web services within a single UI.
· Multiple-tabbed interface
· Basic and windows authentication
· Test services sitting behind a proxy
· Dynamically modify the URL endpoint of a WCF or Web service.
· Dynamically edit the service binding.
· Execution from the command line
· Supports scripting (IronPython)

Functional Testing:
· Create functional test cases and save it as part of a project
· Create and save functional test cases containing Expected results.
· Graphically compare (side-by-side) the expected results with the actual response of a service.
· Fully customizable test validation

Performance Testing:
· Create performance test cases and save it as part of a project
· Graphically display charts in real-time as the performance test progresses.
· Configurable test parameters (# of Agents, Test duration, interval etc.). You can stress out your service as much as you want.
