JAX-WS how do I trigger a method from browser to test it?

Question

I deployed a webservice as follows:
@WebService
public class TestWebServiceImpl implements TestWebService {
     @Override
     @WebResult(name = "DoTest")
     public void doTest() {
          System.out.println("DoTest triggered");
<endpoints xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jax-ws/ri/runtime" version="2.0" Content-type="text/xml">
<endpoint
name="TestService"
implementation="com.test.webservice.impl.TestWebServiceImpl"
url-pattern="/dotest"
/>
</endpoints>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>TestService</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
     com.sun.xml.ws.transport.http.servlet.WSServlet
</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>TestService</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/dotest</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<session-config>
<session-timeout>120</session-timeout>
</session-config>
No I can trigger the wsdl by hitting:
http://localhost:9001/test/dotest
but how do I directly trigger the method "doTest" so I see that system out generated?

SoapUI is a common way of testing webservices. But you could also simply generate client stub classes using the jax-ws wsimport tool and stick them in a command line application.
