    Hi Raven25,

    The approach you have chosen definitely makes sense.

     

    To modify the test step headers, you should use TestRunListener.beforeStep. Also, you will be able to use the testStep variable. You can look at the following script and accommodate it for your needs.

     

    import com.eviware.soapui.support.types.StringToStringMap 
    import com.eviware.soapui.impl.support.http.HttpRequestTestStep

    if (testStep instanceof HttpRequestTestStep) {
      testRequest = testStep.testRequest

      // Create new headers map 
      def headers = new StringToStringMap()
      // Copy existing headers
      testRequest.requestHeaders.each { headers.put(it.key, it.value[0])}
      // Add TestStep Name
      headers.putIfAbsent("x-Testing-TestStep", testStep.getName())

      testRequest.setRequestHeaders(headers)
    }

     

    Best regards,

    Karel

    Hi Karel,

    I tried (copy paste of your code) this and got the following ClassCastException:

    Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: class java.util.ArrayList cannot be cast to class java.lang.String (java.util.ArrayList and java.lang.String are in module java.base of loader 'bootstrap')
    at com.eviware.soapui.support.types.StringToStringsMap.<init>(StringToStringsMap.java:55)
    at com.eviware.soapui.impl.support.AbstractHttpRequest.setRequestHeaders(AbstractHttpRequest.java:514)

     

    Any ideas ?

     

    Kind regards, Heymen

        Thanks, Karel, for your solution! (Excuse my late response; I was enjoying my holiday)


        Is it also possible to use that same script for adding the Project name to the header?
