You may try SOAPUI as it has the ability to create mock objects. It allows
you to test a Web service without actually connecting to it. The feature is
available by right-clicking a method.

A example on tool usage.... may not be on this specific scenario but will
give you idea about using SOAPUI to have your test framework for Web
Services Security. WSDL Example using SOAPUI:
http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.com/2009/08/soapui-for-web-service-testing.html

The above solution (creating mock objects) may or may not be appropriate
most of the time depending on the complexity of your test cases. However,
one thing we must be aware that we can test any web service by having a
proper WSDL url and / or atleast XSD document. If you only have an XSD
document, then probably you can generate one WSDL dynmically for your ready
reference and testing purpose. You can refer below link for WSDL generator.

Once you have sample WSDL generated by using these above kinds of tools you
can test any web service the regular way.. May be again using SOAPUI. Or you
may suggest us the best Web Service Security Testing Tool... :-)

You can also refer to Universal Testing Method of WebService:

Hope this information helps you. Thanks!
