how do I add a test web service to my project in Visual Studio?

Question

I have a test web service replicating a live web service that hasn't been made public yet (It will be public when the app is released).

I added a new ASP.NET Web Service Application to my solution. Now when I try and add a web reference from the main project and choose "Browse To Web services in this solution" it doesn't find the test web service.

Am I missing an important step here?

Maybe the webservice you're trying to connect to isn't running . Do an F5, verify that the service has started by checking the address in the browser then try to add the refference again.

If it doesn't work, just specify the address by hand.
