Accessing Test Case Property in Project's TearDown script

 Hi All, 

 

I was looking for groovy script to access property from test cases in the TearDown script (of Project)

On doing GetData simply returns " context.expand( '${#TestCase#TCCount}' )" [TCCount is the name of property]

I have multiple testcases but GetData returns TestCase when I try to load using ReadyAPI feature.

That's probably a bug in ReadyAPI

 

I tried by providing testcase name in place of "TestCase" but it does not return anything.

Can someone please provide an answer incase they have used this.

 

Thanks !

    SuperSingh ,

     

    What you have shown is the Teardown Script of Test suite, but not the project level Teardown.

     

    /**
* Below is the Teardown Script of the Test Suite
* which looks for the given property in all the test cases of the same suite
* and logs the value
**/

//Specify your property name in below statement
def propertyName = 'Property1'

testSuite.testCaseList.each { kase ->
		if (kase.hasProperty(propertyName)) {
			log.info "${testSuite.name} suite, ${kase.name} case, ${propertyName} value is ${kase.getPropertyValue(propertyName)}" 
		}		
}

    Hi,

     

    I dont know if I'm misunderstanding - but are you saying that you are unable to reference a property from another test case?

     

    I don't know if the following will help, but

     

    If it didn't pick up the property associated with the other test case - was you prefixing the testcase name with the testsuite prefix?

     

    I believe if you use the syntax as follows:

    context.expand( '${#TestCase#property1}' )

    The '#TestCase#' is actually specifying the level where the property is - not it's actual name.

     

    If you want to specify the TestCase name here - try the following:

    context.expand( '${#[TestSuite Name#TestCase Name]#property}' )

     

    Essentially i'm wondering if you specify the testsuite as well this might help?

        Hi richie

         

        Thanks for your time in giving the reply. The syntax you shared works when I put it individually.

        But I want to extract it from all the test cases. For e.g. if I have 5 testcases, I want to loop through all and extract the TCCount from their properties.

         

        The following piece of code doesn't work. But this is what I am looking to extract .

        testSuite.testCaseList.each {
        def name = "${it.name}"
        log.info name
        def tCCount = context.expand( '${'$name'#TCCount}' )
        log.info tCCount
        }

         

        Thanks again for your time .

         

        Regards,

        SuperSingh
