Clone Test Step into Multiple Test Cases Using Groovy

I have a Test Step that I need to clone into all the Test Cases I have within all the Test Suites. Would the following script work when ran against each Test Suite individually:

def slaveTestStep = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getTestSuiteByName("Test Suite").getTestCaseByName("Name")
testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getTestSuiteByName("Test Suite").get TestCaseByName("Name").cloneTestStepByName(slaveTestStep,"NewName")

    Hey socaltester,

    Have you tried the script? Easiest way to find out if it works is to try it on a small dummy testsuite surely?

    Then if it doesnt work you can post any error response you get to assist the diagnosis?

    Just a suggestion....whenever im passing anything to qnt variables, u always add logging to ensure its working and to assist diagnosis if it doesnt

    Ta

      Example Result:

      def slaveTestStep = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getTestSuiteByName("AdminTestSuite").getTestCaseByName("Authenticate")
testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getTestSuiteByName("AdminTestSuite").getTestCaseByName("AppBundles(addBundle)").cloneTestStepByName(slaveTestStep,"Authenticate")Tags (0) authentication

      Exception thrown

      groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: testRunner for class: cloneAuthenticateStep
      at cloneAuthenticateStep.run(cloneAuthenticateStep.groovy:1)

       

       

      Note: I'm attempting to use the GroovyConsole tool withing SoapUI Pro

       

      I'm hoping this might help: https://community.smartbear.com/t5/SoapUI-Pro/SoapUI3-5-No-such-property-testRunner-for-clases-Script1/m-p/16055#M7123

       

      "...the assertion script does not have access to the testRunner variable..."

       

      def testCase = messageExchange.modelItem.testCase

      def ResponseMessage = testCase.testSteps["Step1"].testRequest.response.contentAsString

      log.debug 'response is :::: ' + ResponseMessage

        Added def testCase - messageExchange.modeItem.testCase

        def testCase = messageExchange.modelItem.testCase
def slaveTestStep = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getTestSuiteByName("AdminTestSuite").getTestCaseByName("Authenticate")
testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getTestSuiteByName("AdminTestSuite").getTestCaseByName("AppBundles(addBundle)").cloneTestStepByName(slaveTestStep,"Authenticate")Tags (0) authentication

        Now this is the Exception:

        Exception thrown

groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: messageExchange for class: cloneAuthenticateStep

	at cloneAuthenticateStep.run(cloneAuthenticateStep.groovy:1)
