Abstract: A system providing a reproducible package of a web service scenario having at least one web service client and at least one web service coupled to said network. A collector extracts a set of message exchanges between the web service client and the web service, and a closure builder captures a service description. A workspace repository coup stores the set of message exchanges and the service description to create the reproducible package of the web service scenario. According to one embodiment, the reproducible packages provide mechanisms to share and replay XML message-based scenarios for distributed applications.
