Parasoft SOAtest introduced Service virtualization via server emulation and stubs in 2002;^[5] by 2007, it provided an intelligent stubs platform that emulated the behavior of dependent services that were otherwise difficult to access or configure during development and testing.^[6][7] Extended service virtualization functionality is now in Parasoft Virtualize,^[8] while SOAtest provides intelligent stubbing.
