1. A computer implemented method of testing web services using a web service testing framework, the method comprising:

  • using a data parser to parse data for the web service to be tested, wherein the data parser is one of a plurality of data parsers in a test library configured to support a plurality of data formats for the web service;

    determining if the web service is in a simple object access protocol (SOAP) protocol or a representational state transfer (REST) protocol;

    converting the data into framework objects if the web service is in the SOAP protocol;

    converting the framework objects into test objects if the web service is in the SOAP protocol such that the test objects wrap around the framework objects with web service bindings to provide a layer of abstraction between the framework objects and the test objects, wherein the data for the SOAP protocol comprises web services description language (WSDL);

    converting the data directly into the test objects if the web service is in the REST protocol;

    accessing a web service test from the test library for testing the web service; and

    executing the web service test using the test objects.
