Output Field in Exponential Format

I am facing some issue while testing a web service via SOAP UI. The output field is of datatype float. The problem is, the value is getting converted to scientific notation in the response.

 

Example: expecting [26106884.0], actual output is [2.6106884E7].

Is there a way to avoid this other than changing the datatype of the field?

 

I see the data displayed appropriately in RESTCLIENT too.

    Was this ever solved?  I'm having the same problem.

    Specifically, what are you trying to do?

     

    Yes, it gets converted in some views, and on JSONPath. But you can still use for example, Contains assertion.

     

     {"Something":26106884.0}

    Contains assertion for: "Something":26106884.0, will pass.

     

    For JSONPath assertion, any problem with writing the scientific notation in the expected result?
