In WebLogic Workshop you can quickly generate a JWS (web service) file with which to test controls. You can also use this to test a session or entity bean via EJB controls. The current topic describes how to generate the test JWS and how to use the test JWS to run, test, and debug the EJB.
Build and Deploy the EJB
Create the Built-In Control
Generate the Test JWS
Run the Test JWS
Note. When you test some EJB methods you might notice that although a value is returned correctly by the method, an XMLEncodingException error is thrown in the service response. These types of errors result from the return type not being Serializable, which is a prerequisite for a proper XML response. However, these errors do not affect the operations of the EJB or your ability to use the test web service to test the EJB.
Using Debugging
Making Changes
Note. A JMS Control is not used to call a message-driven bean. Instead it is used as an alternative to message-driven bean, and is used to easily interact with messaging systems that provide a JMS implementation.
