Getting values from old axis code with multirefs

Hi Martin,


There is no built-in support for multiRefs.
I'm afraid you'll need to handle them manually as you suggested yourself.

Thanks for the reply! At least now I know it's not there.

This is what I came up with so far. Doesn't handle nested multirefs yet but so far that functionality wasn't needed either. Maybe someone can use it.

def getMultirefValue(String xpath, def holder) {
 def reference = holder[xpath + "/@href"] - "#"
 def valueXpath = "//*/multiRef[@id='" + reference + "']/text()"
 def value = holder[valueXpath]
 return value
}

I have the same problem with a webservice that uses multiRefs.

What do I have need to do in order to use the code you posted?

You will need to use it in a Groovy Script TestStep

Yes, I have tried that. But I did not succeed in putting together all necessary test steps.

As far as I see, this method "only" replaces 1 href attribute with its content.
Somewhere, I would need to add a loop that gets all those hrefs -> how?
What is the "holder" parameter of this method? Its probably the response of the Request -> how to get hold of that?
Do I need additional "Property Transfer" test steps ?

Could someone post a little "cookbook" how to do it all?
