Testing Requirements

I have a number of web services that return a status code and an XML payload. For each of these web services, I would like to write tests that meet the following criteria:

1. Test requirements
   1. Verify that the web service returns the correct status code based on the inputs (testWebserviceStatus)
   2. If the status code is correct, then I would like to verify 1 or more properties of the payload. Every property is independent, so I would like to have each property verification run as a separate test (testWebserviceProperties)
2. Other requrements
   1. The ability to add/remove the list of web services to test and add/remove the list of properties to verify for each service without updating the test code.
   2. If testWebServiceStatus fails, then its associated testWebserviceProperties should be skipped
   3. The test report should clearly show the success failure of each testWebservice/testWebserviceProperty test along with the web service/property that was being tested
