Groovy Test Step not running while integrated into Jenkins.

I developed my test suites on Windows Ready API! 1.4.1 and use SVN to place those test suites in a repository. I configured the pom.xml so that the test suite is running but there are Groovy Test Step that I rely on that are not running. I do not have any stand alone scripts yet so I don't think I need to commit a scripts folder with the suite to SVN. All groovy code is contained in test steps.

 

The Jenkins server I'm working with is Linux and did not configure it, so I don't know how that was set up, but I can find things out about it.

 

What additional information is needed to help me get these groovy script test steps working?

 

Here is s snippet from the Jenkins console that shows some of the warnings that I am looking at:

 What I am doing is incrementing an account count before I use it to create a new account and the suite is failing because it is using an account name that already exists.

 

There are sundry other warnings I wouldn't mind knowing how to resolve.

 

Thanks!

    I mean try with the changes as modifed in below script (earlier suggested to use context in place of testRunner, not sure though why Jenkins unable to determine context while soapUI can work fine)

     

    //Get existing value
def count = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.properties['createAccountCount'].value as int
//Set the next value and put it back to project property
testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.properties['createAccountCount'].value = (count+1).toString()

    Would you mind posting the script that is not behaving as anticipated. Also it would help if you can provide details about the sequence of steps involved in the test case.

      OK, here is the groovy test step:

       

      def createAccountCount = context.expand( '${#Project#createAccountCount}' );
log.info("The current createAccountCount = " + createAccountCount + "\nWill be incremented.");
return ++createAccountCount;

      Once the variable createAccountCount is incremented, it is transferred back to the Project property "createAccountCount" and used to create a new account user name in a POST to a service.

        • You do not need to have return in groovy script
        • Instead, need to set it back, so that updated value can be used later.
        • I believe, this should never worked, not just in jenkins like you mentioned.

        Modified script for the requested.

        //Get existing value
def count = context.testCase.testSuite.project.properties['createAccountCount'].value as int
//Set the next value and put it back to project property
context.testCase.testSuite.project.properties['createAccountCount'].value = (count+1).toString()
