If you are familiar with automation testing you might know the importance of dynamically storing or retrieving property values. In soapUI, we can story properties on different levels, say on project level, testSuite level and testCase level. Either we can hardcode the property even before the test run or we can create update and retrieve the property values dynamically using groovy script. Let us see how can we achieve this using groovy in soapUI.
The below sample groovy script will allow you to add, set and retrieve properties.
/*To make this for a test case level property, change the below line todef testSuite = context.testCase;
*/
def testSuite = context.testCase.testSuite;
def PropertyName = "UserName"
/*Below line checks if there is already a property named "UserName"*/
if(!testSuite.hasProperty(PropertyName))
testSuite.addProperty(PropertyName)
/*Below line of groovy code will set the value "user01" for the property*/
testSuite.setPropertyValue(PropertyName,'user01')
//Below line will retrieve the property value
def propertyValue = testSuite.getPropertyValue(PropertyName)

Hi,
Can you please give me the example for property transfer for project level.
Hello Srinivas..
I guess you are trying to access project level property right? Please try the below code. Let me know if you are trying to achieve something else, I will try to help you the best I can.
def proj = context.testCase.testSuite.getProject()
def PropertyName = "Prop1"
if(proj.hasProperty(PropertyName))
proj.setPropertyValue(PropertyName,'user01')
Thank you very much Sudeesh.....i need one more help from you...

Thank you very much Sudeesh.....i need one more help from you...

The best way to read data from outside soapUI using groovy is to get it in a XML format. In your case, you can prepare your excel sheet and convert that into an XML (Save as .XML). Once you have the XML ready, make use of soapUI Setup and Tear Down script (http://www.webservices-testing.com/2011/10/soap-ui-setup-teardown-script.html). Identify the total number of nodes (rows) in the input XML and read one node at a time in the setup script and set the values as properties. In the teardown script, pass the control back to start if more values are present.
Thank you for your inputs Sudeesh, but i am new for SOAPUI i don't know how to prepare groovy script for data driven and Tear Down script. Please provide me one example with script.
Hi Sudeesh,
If possible please give me one example of data driven, i am new for groovy script, this is very urgent for me.
Hello Srinivas.. There are a lot of different scripts which are required to implement a complete data driven framework. I can provide you a sample on how you can read data from an XML sheet if that helps you. I'm sorry but these days I'm a bit busy with my work so please expect delay in my respone
Thanks Sudeesh....no issues..data driven using .xls or xml?
Give me small example...then i will start my things..
My requirement is assume i have one request (REST Service) with name and city inputs.
i need to execute 10 times with different data using data driven (XLS). Please help me on this.
Sorry for the delay in my response Srinivas..I have published a new post on How to parse and read XML file. That might help you. All the very best for your testing efforts..

Hi!
Can you help me to transfer some variable from groovy script to custom properties in soapUI?
My script is:
import com.eviware.soapui.support.XmlHolder
def holder = new XmlHolder(messageExchange.responseContentAsXml)
holder.namespaces["ns"] = context.expand('${#Project#BASE_XMLNS}')
log.info holder.getNodeValue("//html[1]/body[1]/form[1]/@action")
def CASTGC = 'CASTGC=' + holder.getNodeValue("//html[1]/body[1]/form[1]/@action")[55..116] + '; Path=/cas/; Secure'
log.info
And I need write CASTGC variables to the Custom properties on TestCase level.
Thank you!
Alex
Hi Alex..
Try
context.testCase.setPropertyValue("CASTGC",CASTGC);
Hi Admin!
Thank sooooo much!!!! I try to solve this issue more then 2 weeks, it was lailed.
Thank you one more time!
