Service-oriented architectures and Web services have been widely adopted by enterprises to pervade integration among software systems. As reliable services are essential to assure that these systems work correctly, formal and systematic testing should be performed. This paper reports the application of a model-based approach to test Web services in the context of real-world applications of a multinational computer technology corporation. The employed approach is called ESG4WSC, in which an event-driven model is provided to support modeling and test case generation, as well as an environment to support the concretization and test execution.
