Currently you need to set up a rule and then execute it triggering an action. This lead to the creation of nodes (or other) in order to test the Web Service.

Would it be possible to provide a standalone form to test the Web Service ?
Something like the standard .NET invoke form should be handy and also allowed to integrate directly external Web Services in a Drupal site (like currency converter).

Thanks a lot.

I needed to get more visibility on this also.

Here is Web Service Client Tester that I wrote today to do that.

Looks useful! Should we include this with the wsclient project or do you want it to be a separate project?

It's not at all useful on its own, and the wsclient (well, often web services in general) is a bit of a struggle to understand without good visibility of the transactions - so it would make most sense to go into the wsclient package I think.
Feel free to merge. I'll come on to maintain it a little if you'd like.

I'm also working on full Feeds integration as well - which is why I had to write this tester first :-).
I'll let you know how that goes.

Thanks, integrated as subtree:

git subtree add --prefix=wsclient_tester http://git.drupal.org/sandbox/dman/1929778.git  7.x-1.x

I also added you as maintainer to this project, feel free to commit improvements to wsclient_tester.

Cheers!
( Also, thanks for the example on git merging the right way :-) )
