HOWTO test a thrid-party web service?

[Rui Wang via .NET 247]

Hi all,
I am coding a web serivce and VS.net2003 is the tool I am using. I am constantly getting errors back from the thrid party web serivce, which I am connecting to.

Can anyone suggest a good way of testing whether the remote web service is working or not?

The web service I want to test is published in WSDL format:
http://xml.nig.ac.jp/wsdl/SRS.wsdl

Any suggestions are welcome!
