Passing Values from Groovy Script into Request

Question

Due to an immediate change in my company we are loosing our SoapUi Pro licenses and I am tasked with taking a rather large testcase and porting it to the community version of SoapUI. Unfortunately, this project uses the 'DataGen' teststep rather heavily. I have successfully re-created what the 'DataGen' test step produced. It is pasted below. Everyone is welcome to use any of this as they see fit. But I need help immediately with the following: How do I use the created values from my GroovyScript in my Request? How do I pass these values directly into the XML call or into a properties transfer test step. For the life of me nothing is working. I pasted the results of the log as well. This proves my script is working as designed and giving me 12 random values that are used to create a customer profile. How do I go about putting these values into the XML request? In the pro version the datagen properties were mapped directly into the request and wallah! Please Help!!

Please this link how you can see the properties in groovy script
www.soapui.org/Scripting-Properties/tips-a-tricks.html
Those will be available at run time if your request has ${#TestCase#Property}

May be you can have look this post if not already for datasource and looping in free version

Thank You! So much for your help! Please walk me through this. I am new to groovy.

Lets start with my existing script as it is. What specifically do I need to do in my script to make these values available as property values in my xml request? I read through the tutorial links you have sent me many times and need a little help getting started.

For instance you told me to use : ${#TestCase#Property}

Where does that go? In the XML request or is that a method I am supposed to use in my groovy script.

Can we start with my groovy script? What do I need to code in the script to prepare those values to be sent out?
Please walk me through this. I cannot thank you enough!

Not knowing is not a problem

, you may learn it as needed.
In the groovy script add line
testRunner.testCase.setPropertyValue( "FIRST_NAME", firstname )

In the request have value ${#TestCase#FIRST_NAME}

Hope this helps

Rao,You're a lifesaver! Everything works with one exception. The value of STATE. I am getting errors when I inserting the testRunner method. Please advise.

Rao,I think I just figured it out. I changed the groovy script to// This creates a random Identification Stateidstate = random.nextInt(state.size())testRunner.testCase.setPropertyValue( "ID_STATE", state [idstate] )log.info (state [idstate])
