title: Web Service test automation with Selenium with Cucumber
body: <p>I am working on a test automation project where I am using Selenium with Cucumber with Maven dependencies. 
  I need to automate web service requests. We do have SoapUI pro in place. 
  Is it possible to automate web service using soapUI api? If yes, How?
  If No, what is the workaround? 
  What other test automation web service tools can be integrated with selenium? </p>
  
  <p>Ideally, we want everything to be Behavior driven. </p>
  
  <p>This is the automation goal :
  Cucumber > Selenium > UI
  Cucumber > Selenium > Web Service (SoapUI or whatever)</p>
  
  <p>I am new to this. My question may not be valid and I have done some research and did not get any outcomes which supports my goal.</p>
