auto generating data sink reports

Hi there,

We currently run soapuipro which has a few steps database lookup, web service invocation, result comparison and gathering result in a datasink.This data sink has quite a few columns and we want to persist the datasink results in external csv or xls file automatically with a pre-defined column order. Currently we are not able to provide a column order on the datasink report and also have to generate the report manually each time after running the soapui pro utility. How can we configure soapui pro to generate the datasink reports automatically as we have to run the tool frequently and would be more productive to have the reports generated automatically.

Let me know.

Thanks - Sushant

    Hi!

    hm.. exactly what kind of report are you generating now? Are you using the Subreport feature with the printable reports?

    regards!

    Hi Ole,

    Yes we are using Subreports feature of the Datasink. Not sure what do you mean by printable reports.
    But after the SOAPUI run we manually have to export the report which always takes the same name items.***

    We want the ability to store the reports in an external folder as part of the automated SOAPUI run

    Thanks,
    Sushant

    Hi,

    currently you can not automatically generate these reports from with the UI, but if you run the tests from the command-line the -R and -F options can be used to automate report generation; maybe you could run them via the "Launch TestRunner" menu option (on the TestCase menu) for this purpose?

    regards!
