Command Line Run with output files that contain "Messages" that I would like to control

Hello, I am running lots of tests through the ReadyAPI/SoapUI command line.  There is parameter to generate reports (not really important just background for the question)...  CALL "C:\Program F...

    Hello KarelHusa 

     

    Thank you for the direction.  After more research, it looks like the key to that message section is in the "Events" manager portion of ReadyAPI.  If I add a new event handler for "TestRunListener.afterStep", I can put whatever I need to in the messages area of the report.

     

    Here is just the smallest code snippet to add to that event...

    import com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.teststeps.WsdlTestRequestStep
import com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.teststeps.RestTestRequestStep
import com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.teststeps.HttpTestRequestStep
import static com.eviware.soapui.model.testsuite.TestStepResult.TestStepStatus.*

def testStep = testStepResult.getTestStep();
testStepResult.addMessage("  ---   TESTING");    
testStepResult.addMessage(" --  ${testStep.name}");

    When run from testrunner.bat, I see the following below for one of my test steps (this code does not differentiate well however, I will adjust it so the message only occurs when I want it to and not for every test step).

Todd,

you can use the following method to print out the test step report in Groovy:


testStepResult.writeTo(PrintWriter)

      Todd,

      nice. I already use testStepResult in custom reports (via TestRunListener.afterStep and other listeners), but did not notice the option to add custom messages.

       

      Best regards,

      Karel
