API and testrunner Performance

Hi,

we run most of our testcases by using testrunner.bat.
But we measured a significant performance drop in comparison to testcase execution via soapUI GUI.
For example:
- a testcase in soapUI will take 0.1 s
- the same execution via testrunner.bat takes about 3.7 s (2.7 seconds for initialization, and about 1 second for testcase execution)

My questions are:
1) why does the same testcase take 0.1 second in soapUI GUI and 1 second (10 times more) in testrunner.bat execution?
2) Is there a way to get a better performance (e.g. doing the initialization once and execution different testcase for different projects by and by)

Just to explain: We cannot run a complete suite as each call of the testrunner.bat adresses exactly one testcase.

Best regards
Nico
  • Hi Nico,

    That sounds very odd indeed. What sort of testing are you doing? Which version of SoapUI are you running?

    If possible, sending us some sort of small project that demonstrates this behavior would really help in investigating this issue.

    Hi Arian,

    I have used the support form on soapui.org to upload the sample project.

    Best regards
