Backing up/using source control

Folks,

Now that I actually have 8-16 hrs worth of usable work, I want to start backing up my soapUI projects in a source control repository.

If I have soapUI projects which include requests and groovy scripts, what files do I need to backup? Obvously the soapUI project file, but I need to know if anything else (esp the groovy scripts) is stored elsewhere.

Thanks in advance,

John O.

    Hi John,

    the project file contains more or less your entire project so there are no "external" files you need to back up, unless you have used the Groovy Script Library which needs to be managed seperately..

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks Ole - is there some place where the groovy script library is documented, because I'm about to do that (my backlog for the day includes 1) getting going with backups and repository and 2) moving my code out of each test into parameterized, centralized helper scripts).

    Or do I just back up the \bin\scripts directory?
