Could any one give idea about SOAPUI testing is it a good tool to learn.
SoapUI is a tool that lets you perform automated tests on webservices. You can download a limited edition of SoapUI, in case you're interested to learn more about it. I have found it useful in testing remote services.
Many automation test tools focus on testing of the frontend GUI side more. SOAPUI takes a different approach & reads the information being sent/received from the web server without having a UI present, specifically for web services (think of an API, but exposed via the web rather than any local files).
Is it a good tool to learn? Yes in my opinion - the number of automation specialists having only GUI testing experience seems to largely outweigh those with experience in both GUI and backend experience. If you gain experience at both, it will broaden your knowledge, allow you to better construct a widened-focus test automation approach in future and perhaps increase your job prospects.
