BOSTON, April 11 /PRNewswire/ --

- SOAPSimulator Offers Graphical Point and Click SOA Simulation Features
to Accelerate, Integrate, and Optimize Enterprise SOA Projects

Crosscheck Networks, Inc., the leading provider of SOA testing solutions,
today launched SOAPSimulator(TM), an affordable, easy-to-configure,
comprehensive service simulation product for SOA developers and testers.
SOAPSimulator enables SOA professionals to significantly reduce project
expense and duration and deliver interoperable and secure Service Oriented
Architecture.

"We find that businesses are initially excited about automating
transactions with their trading partners -- suppliers, buyers and service
providers -- but lose momentum and become frustrated when they have to wait
for service implementation to complete or endpoints to be available," said
Mamoon Yunus, CTO Forum Systems. "This increases project risks, timelines and
costs. SOAPSimulator provides businesses the means to parallelize their SOA
development efforts and increase the likelihood of successful project
delivery."

SOAPSimulator provides the ability to mimic producer services even before
they are deployed which allows for compressed project timelines by
parallelizing client and server development tasks. Service simulation enables
corporations to provide a portable alternative to building an expensive SOA
reference environment. Out-of-the-box graphical simulation features allow for
rapid project simulation and deployment.

Corporate best practices can be measured for the WSDL entities as well as
the XML based runtime transactions using portable SOAPSimulator(TM) analysis
rules. This allows teams within the enterprise to follow a consistent set of
best practices to maximize interoperability among services.

SOAPSimulator(TM) provides acceleration and optimization of SOA projects
with features such as:

-- Graphical point and click SOAP and XML simulation
    -- Comprehensive WSDL and XSD schema support
    -- Dynamic WSDL and Schema retrieval from simulation instance
    -- Real-time simulation transaction monitoring
    -- WSDL and XSD report card to measure against corporate best practices
    -- Customizable runtime messaging governance analysis rules
    -- Multiple simultaneous service simulations
    -- Complex business logic simulation with runtime variable state machine
    -- WS-Security and WS-Identity extensibility
    -- Database and plug-in API extensibility



Pricing and Availability

The SOAPSimlator(TM) is currently available and priced from US$999 to
US$4999 based on deployment scenarios. For more information, visit
