SoapUI 4.6.3 Template for an SOAP Request and Groovy Scripts

Question

Heyho every one,I'm searching for a way to improve the handling of soap requests a little bit. The development is changing the WSDL/request a certain times and I would like to put a full request with all soap parameters somewhere and then load it somehow as an template.I guess this would help to apply the changes of the development team in just one place instead of put the change in every test I used? In addition to that I would like to do that with my Groovy scripts as well. They are frequently used for assertions or modify data/properties and every time I fix or change something within this script I need to adjust this as oft as I used it in every test case.I´ve been searching for this for a while and used google and the board search function as well but I just found something about security testing which is probably not applicable for me.I’m open for any suggestionsRegardsSten

Creating a SOAP template is done in the endpoint definition. This will be useful only for creating new test steps, not for existing test steps.

For Groovy scripts, you would want to use the script library. http://www.soapui.org/Scripting-Propert ... pt-library

As for 'loading a template' the best option would be to write a groovy script that inputs your variables. Since the WSDLs are likely not changing that much, it should be able to build it correctly.

As for the script library, check out this thread

The following, unfortunately is a Pro feature: WSDL Refactoring - http://www.soapui.org/SOAP-and-WSDL/wsd ... oring.html

But that would solve the issue of updating WSDLs and updating test cases as a result.
