Automatically saving request and response files

Hi All,

I am using SoapUI Pro 3.6.1. I would like to automatically save all the request and response messages (executed) to any file (no matter which extension).

I found the script below (FYI I dont know anything about scripts or how they work)
filePath = 'c:/'
fos = new FileOutputStream( filePath + testStepResult.testStep.label + '.txt', true )
pw = new PrintWriter( fos )
testStepResult.writeTo( pw )
pw.close()
fos.close()

I closed my SoapUI project and restarted and ran a test request from one of the test suite. But there was no output file in C drive.

I think I will require some basic information here (step-by-step)

Can anyone please help?

Thanks
Mak

    Hi Mak,

    You can add a groovy script step as the last step of ur test case.
    Try following code in the groovy script step.
    It will create a .txt file.

    def filename = "C:\\<filename>.txt"
    logFile = new File(fileName)
    def request = context.expand("<Your request>")
    def response = context.expand("<Your response>")

    logFile.append("\nRequest: " + request)
    logFile.append("\nResponse: " + response)


    //Step 3 and 4 can be also created by right clicking the blank space, selecting "Get data" and then selecting the request.

    Hi Ankita

    Thanks for that. It worked

    Anyway but the response and request messages starts one after another. How can I automatically press enter after the word 'request' and 'response'?

    Thanks
