Putting into a request a series of values

Hello

I'd like to send into a request a series of N values; all of them must be accepted and generate a succeded value

What I have made is a TestCase whith N TestSteps of type Request, each of them getting one of the N values ...

I'd like to make something looking like the loop feeding the request from an external file, or, better from a database

In SopaUI Pro it seems to use the Loop and DataSource teststeps.

How can i do with soap UI ?

PS : I'm not at all initated in Script programming for SoapUI. If it impossible to do without it could you please, in addition, indicate good web sites for beginners in this field ?

Thanks a lot,
Pascal (from France)

    I believe without significant scripting knowledge this isn't possible in normal SOAPUI. But with Pro it's easy. As you say just use data source and loop, with datasource from a number of options like db, excel etc. I've just invested in Pro specifically for this reason. Makes it soooo much easier.

    Thank You for your answer
    Just for information I had found a way by browsing the forum, someone had written a reusable script simulating a loop and a data source and so on
    I'll join it to this post some time or can send you if you are interested
    Good bye
