Integration Testing: Enterprise and Partner WSDLs

How do you test the functionality related to enterprise/partner WSDLs provided to other systems? As we need to imitate as if the updates/inserts are coming from other system, what tools do you use for testing?

We are currently using SoapUI for testing this. I want to understand better/newer ideas/approaches in this regard.

Soap UI is your best bet for testing the Enterprise and Partner WSDLs.  It's fairly straight forward to test the login call and then any subsequent insert / update / upsert / delete etc operations.  There's a stand alone version as well as an eclipse plugin (I've had better luck with the stand alone, as I really don't like to open Eclipse).  If your integration will ever change (e.g. need to utilize new fields in Salesforce for instance) I would strongly suggest using the Partner wsdl as you can have a much more dynamic integration as well.  Hope that helps.
