Questions about using and options in command-line launcher
Hello,
I'm beginner at using Soap UI command-line launcher, the only documentation I know is the one of your WebSite, very good but sometimes not enough precise for my use. I'd like to have some more précisions
1 / About the following options :
"-a" means "Turns on exporting of all test results, not only errors"; however in my tests, when "-a" is not present in the command line, no log is ever created ; even if the request of the WebService returns a SoapFault. Where have I been wrong according to you ? By the way is it necessary to put assertion(s) to obtain an error-log file ?
"-j" means "Turns on exporting of JUnit-compatible reports"; in two words what is JUnit ?
Which are the various possible values of "-R" option ? Project, TestSuite, TestCase ? other values ?
2 / When using the launcher :
- Is it possible to automatically create a file that contains the log of the Soap UI treatement displayed on the screen by the launcher ? Does an option exist for that ? (*)
- I don't understand what is the use of the "Test Runner Path" field ? When is it necessary ? is it important ?
- In the report generated by the -a option, in the beginning the status I have obtained is always "UNKNOWN"; how can I obtain a more precise status ?
- I'd like a lot if it were possible to obtain 3 distinct log-files :
- one which would contain the error of the Request and which would exist only in case of failure of the Request
- another one which would contain the result of the Request (just like the one generated by the "-a" option)
- and a third which would contain (*)
Thanks by advance for your answers (even if it's about only one point ; any new information is welcome particularly concerning reports production)
