One of the key concepts of service-oriented computing
is dynamic binding which favors on-demand integration of
services into a running system. Companies can outsource tasks to
external partners by using their services and are able to switch
over to alternatives at runtime. However, this flexibility comes at
a high cost because it complicates the testing process significantly.
The major problem with external services is their restricted
usability for testing purposes, due to costs or because policies
forbid trial invocations. In this paper we present our approach
to solve this issue by generating automatically testbeds which
emulate external services. Based on previous work on testbed
generation, we have developed a technique for intercepting Web
service invocations in Java-based systems, generating emulated
replicas at runtime, and redirecting the invocations transparently.
We describe the concepts of our approach, its applicability, and
limitations.
