Automating Multiple Tests on Multiple Services

This answer assumes that you're familiar with soapUI property expansions, if not read about them here.

So here's what you could do:

• Start loadUI with the command line option "-DmyCustomEndpoint=http://www.myWebSite.com". E.g. loadUI-cmd.bat "-DmyCustomEndpoint=http://www.myWebSite.com".


• Use the property expansion ${=System.getProperty("myCustomEndpoint")} wherever you want to use your custom endpoint in soapUI.

Now you can start loadUI with a custom endpoint specified from a Bat-script, Maven, Hudson or whatever, like this:

REM testAllEndpoints.bat

loadUI-cmd.bat "-DmyCustomEndpoint=http://myWebSite.com" -p my-loadui-project.xml -r c:\dev\reports -F PDF
loadUI-cmd.bat "-DmyCustomEndpoint=http://myOtherWebSite.com/admin.php" -p my-loadui-project.xml
loadUI-cmd.bat "-DmyCustomEndpoint=http://myOtherWebSite.com"-p my-loadui-project.xml
loadUI-cmd.bat "-DmyCustomEndpoint=http://twitter.com/eviware" -p testSLA1.xml -r c:\dev\reports -F PDF

REM Add more endpoints/configurations as needed...
