Wiremock: Make SOAP stubbing awesome

[mrts]

It would be awesome to have better SOAP support and Mark D. Sievers has provided a nice snippet for this in this StackOverflow answer:

Setup:

public <T> void stubOperation(String operation, Class<T> clazz,
                              Predicate<T> predicate, Object response) {
    wireMock.stubFor(requestMatching(
                     new SoapObjectMatcher<>(context, clazz, operation, predicate))
                    .willReturn(aResponse())
                    .withHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml")
                    .withBody(serializeObject(response))));
}

Usage:

SoapContext context = new SoapContext(...); // URIs, QName, Prefix, ect
context.stubOperation("createUser", CreateUser.class, (u) ->
     "myUser".equals(u.getUserName()), new CreateUserResponse());

soapClient.createUser("myUser");

Could something based on that be added to WireMock?

Any chance this gets implemented @tomakehurst? I'd really like to not use SOAPUI for SOAP-Testing.

I'd love to be able to tackle this problem properly, but I'm unlikely to find the time for it in the near future unfortunately.

Having said that I was always planning to add SOAP support as an extension library rather than to WireMock's core, so there's no reason it has to be me that works on it.
