regression

This may unfortunately be a very open-ended question, but a coworker of mine has shared concerns about using SoapUI Pro as our automated regression testing tool primarily on the basis that seemingly trivial WSDL changes can cause headaches for the QA crew. My coworker's particularly concerned that if we update the WSDL, even with a name change, we'll need to touch and update each existing test.

As I understand it SoapUI Pro offers a refactoring tool to handle this for you.

What are your experiences with SoapUI Pro and updating your web services? Am I missing something?
