How to get XML response content of a different test case

Hello Pallavi,

If the test suites are in the same project and you can use it like below. Remember this code will have to be written in a Groovy script from Test_Suite_2 to access Test_Suite_1:

def project = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project ;
def tcase = project.testSuites["Test_Suite_1"].testCases["Test_Case_A"] ; 
def tstep = tcase.getTestStepByName("Test_Step_X");

def response_test_suite_1 = tstep.getProperty("response");

// You can also access individual nodes now from the response you imported like below:

def gutils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils( context );
def holder = gutils.getXmlHolder("$response_test_suite_1");

def a = holder.getNodeValue("your_xml_xpath_here");

Hi Deepesh,

Thank you very much for the quick response, I tried the following, with the help of your code.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def utils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils( context );
def project = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project ;
def tcase = project.testSuites["recordedViewingsReports"].testCases["singleRecordedViewingForIntegratedChannel"] ;
def tstep = tcase.getTestStepByName("assert-getDeliveredViewingReports");

def response_holder = tstep.getProperty("response");

def holder = utils.getXmlHolder("$response_holder");

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The groovy script failed at the last step "def holder = utils.getXmlHolder("$response_holder");" , it returned me a java null pointer exception.

Please find the error logs below:

Hello Pallavi,

My mistake. The line:

def response_holder = tstep.getProperty("response");

returns the property response but not the value of the "response". Update the above line to below:

def response_holder = tstep.getPropertyValue("response");

and it should work.

Let me know if this works.
