Changing the order of testsuite

Hi,

I have a composite project in which I have 7 testsuites. Each testsuite is named in the following way: "1 text1", "2 text2",...

I have created the 5th testsuite after the others which causes it to be the last testsuite. If I move this testsuite up to the position where it should be, save the project and restart soapUI then the 5th testsuite is again the last testsuite.

Even manually editing the file element.order did not help.

What can I do to get the order I want to have?

Regards,

René

    Hello,

    I am unable to reproduce this. Each time I try, the order is correctly saved and loaded (using soapUI PRO 3.6 beta1). Which version of soapUI are you running? Can you try updating to the latest version or a nightly build to see if this problem has been resolved?

    Hi,

    upgrading to 3.6.1 beta did not help.

    Have you used a composite project?

    Here are some screenshots to illustrate the behavior:

    This is how it looks like in the beginning.


    This is how it looks like after sorting with the context menu.


    After saving and restarting soapUI it looks like this again.

    Hi,

    I have found the cause of this issue:
    The name of my testsuite contains illegal (well,at least on windows) characters: '(',','

    This causes problems with reports as well. I think soapUI should not allow those characters in a composite project...
