i would like to perform webservices testing( WSDL or REST Services) using selenium , ca anyone help me with this?
Don't use Selenium to test these things. Selenium is useful for automating the UI that interacts with said REST or WSDL services. It (Selenium) should not be used for automating the services themselves.
Instead, use something like jMeter, SoapUI or even curl

Give some examples for test automation tools used for testing an ESB?
Can Selenium be used for testing or are there any specific tools?
I believe Citrus is the standard in ESB automation testing. While I am not as familiar with Selenium, since it is browser automation, at a minimum it can be used for REST based service testing, as this can be done thru a typical browser without additional support.
Google Chrome Postman with jetpack can do both REST and SOAP.
Can we use selenium webdriver to test API. For example if we fill sign up form than can we check that API is called properly and the parameter we pass at sign up page are transfer at the web services?
No, Selenium webdriver is not supposed to test APIs. Yes but there are workaround you can do it in indirect way. But I'd suggest to use the tool which is meant to test APIs. There are few open source Java based DSL which you can use along with selenium.
One of them is Rest Assured.
Personally I liked this tool and integrated it with my selenium project. I use selenium to perform all the front-end operations which are required to call APIs.
We have made a RESTFUL Web services that is doing GET calls to the database currently.
I am looking for some tools that I can use to test our RESTFUL Web Services by simulating the load that we are going to have in our Production.
I just need to test the RESTFUL web services end to end response time. If we are making around 10000 calls or running it for around more two three minutes.
So what kind of testing we should do for this? And I looked into the JMeter as well but it was very confusing for me to do the testing for GET Calls of RESTFUL Web Services.
What tools we in general should use to test the RESTFUL Web Services
if your web service is java based, JMeter would be a good option.
I need to test few RESTful services,
Not sure what is the best tool to test and what else is required..
I did check SOAP UI but it requires WADL to test Restful services in SOAP UI however their is no WADL in my application.
Junit is one option I am aware looking much more simpler one..Kindly help
Thanks in advance

You can use Fiddler2
I have used Postman (a google app) to build automated tests for RESTful webservices. It's very easy to use and with the upgraded version you can build a lot of tests specific to your needs.
Our development team is developing a service (NOT web enabled) to support our web enabled application. I test the web part with Selenium/JUnit/Eclipse/Java.
I was wondering if there is anyway to use Selenium-Server / Selenium to test a service that is not web enabled?
Anyone ever attempted?
Thank you.
Selenium isn't for testing services, its for testing web GUIs
If it's not web-enabled then how will you access the service ?
Look at soapui for web service testing
