Junit Test Case for axis WebService

[Gobind Singh]

I have written a test case using junit. I am executing it through the Eclipse 3.2 IDE.

The test case is a client for a webservice. it is as follows:

public class TestCategoryReports extends TestCase {
private String localHostEndPoint;
private String targetNameSpace;
private String serviceName;
private String portName;

public TestCategoryReports() {
localHostEndPoint= "http://127.0.0.1:8181/axis/services/MstrCatReports?wsdl";
targetNameSpace = "urn:com.aah.CategoryReports";
serviceName = "CategoryReports";
portName = "MstrCategoryReports";
}


public void testGetEnterpriseProdGroupReportOneItem() {
BranchAccount[] barray = new BranchAccount[1];
BranchAccount bAccount = new BranchAccount("606R", "00104034J");
barray[0] = bAccount;
Service service = new Service();
try{
Call call = (Call) service.createCall();
call.setTargetEndpointAddress(new URL(localHostEndPoint));
call.setOperation(new QName(targetNameSpace),"getEnterpriseProdGroupReport");
EnterpriseProductCategoryReportOutput ret = (EnterpriseProductCategoryReportOutput)call.invoke(barray);
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("Exception Caught");
fail("exception caught " + e);
}
}

Whenever I execute this test case it fails with:

org.xml.sax.SAXException: SimpleDeserializer encountered a child element, which is NOT expected, in something it was trying to deserialize.

I know my webservice code works since I can call it from a web based diagnostic tool that I have (SoapScope). I have also run org.apache.axis.utils.tcpmon and it shows that the request and response is coming back correct when I run the junit test case.

The problem is that in eclipse, I get the above exception trace.

Any ideas???
