Similarly if I change the xpath to -

String xPath = "//*:Response/*:Barometer/*:OneDay"

then -

log.info responseNodes.getLength() = 19 ?

I would like to know how is the figure 19 is being calculated and is the scrpt i am using is correct .

Hi Skelkar,

 

I read your script and I think, because you have given getchildnodes() in the holder, it is calculating child nodes as well. 

Try with out giving getchildnodes() and check if you get the expected result. 

 

Cheers,

Dhivya

    I have to use the holder to access barometer and its child nodes.

    Script is correct and working fine I just wanted to understand why the count is 13.

    How soap ui is calculating the lenth as 13 if some one can answer and clarify that would be gr8 help.

      Somehow, the script you posted not working for when tried, running into compilation issue.

      And this how i could assert.

      Note that you may directly pass the response instead of inline xml data, so you may replace the value for response  if needed.

       

      import com.eviware.soapui.support.XmlHolder
def response='''
