It’s been a long time since I had to work in SOAP. Does https://soapy.sourceforge.net/ atill work? That would make things easier to automate if so. This is awesome work.

It was last updated in 2001. I'd be shocked if it didn't have any relevant breaking changes in the last 25 years.

Clearly you never worked in soap. The whole idea was “web services but not easy”.

I’ll do you one better: if that’s the same project, I contributed to it: https://pypi.org/project/SOAPpy/#user-content-contributors

I recoil in horror at SOAP, not because I don’t know it, but because I do.

Ha, well thank you for giving me a much less painful SOAP experience than the usual one back in the 2000s. I’d first used it with .Net 1.1 or 2.0.
