Use SoapUI to Test API calls

    In the Developer Center is a description available how to use Postman to test API calls. This is working perfectly.

    In addition to this I tried to use SoapUI to test the API calls. I like SoapUI because it is very powerful with the Mockup and TestSuite Stuff.

    • I created a REST Project
    • I configured the OAuth2.0 authentication, this is working without issues and I get the token
    • When I send a request /api/v1/users/me I got the following Errormessage:

    javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Connection has been shutdown: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Received fatal alert: handshake_failure

    I googled a little bit an it seems to be related to TLS1.2 (SOAPUI uses TLS 1.0 by default). So I added the Option

    -Dsoapui.https.protocols=TLSv1.2

    into SoapUI-5.2.1.vmoptions

    It is still not working. Did anybody else tried to test the API with SoapUI?

    It sounds like this issue

    Sebastian,

    Not related to your issue around SSL but you should use /api/v2 instead of v1. All new features are going into V2 and V1 will be turned off in the coming months.

    Yes it seems to be the same issue is related to a missing SNI. I compared the handshakes from Postman and SoapUI in Wirehark and this is missing. The PC Server replies with a Handshake Error to SoapUI.

    It seems that I have to wait for a Update on SoapUI for this.
