SoapUI 4.6.3 Modify Property without Groovy

Question

Hey Everyone,I’m quite new in this soapui topic and I’m looking for an function of soapui to modify an property which I’ve gathered from an response and which I would like to compare somewhere else slightly modified. I’ve scrolled around the web and the forum but can’t find something suitable.For exampleRequest1 gets a Response like “value234234” and I would like to use this response value like this “value23” in another response to verify. Is there a soapui function which could be used to archive this without using complex groovy scripting?I’m talking about a timestamp modification to be a little more precise.Best RegardsSten

Hey SiKing again,

I´ve already found this this page and this is almost every time the place of start for me. Unfortunately there is no documentation to modify any property? As I described above, I would like to modify and not transfer a property. Is there any inbuilt function to achieve this?

Best Regards
Sten

There is at least a dozen different ways to "modify a property". What exactly is your situation? Describe the problem.

Heyho SiKing,The step I would like to do is cutting off a few digits at the end of an value which ive got from the response of an request to use it within the next request to compare.For exampleRequest1 gets an Response like “value234234” and I would like to use this response value like “value23” (cut of a few at the end) in another response to verify. Is there any soapui function which could be used to achieve this (without using complex groovy scripting)?Best RegardsSten

Use a Property-Transfer step. For the Source XPath use something like

substring(//*:response-xpath, 0, 7)

see http://zvon.org/comp/r/ref-XPath_2.html ... ~substring
For the target use either property or directly XPath of the location where you want this.

If you want to get a little more fancy, you can use Groovy; hints are over here: http://www.soapui.org/Scripting-Propert ... -and-names
