Compare XML response with DB values

How to compare the XML Response values with DB query output values in Ready API?

    If you put a Groovy test step after your JDBC request, you could then use property expansions to get your data and perform an assertion, something like:

     

    def soapDataItem = context.expand('${SOAP Request#Response#//Blah[1]/DataItem[1]}')
def jdbcDataItem = context.expand('${JDBC Request#ResponseAsXml#//Results[1]/ResultSet[1]/Row[1]/ITEM[1]}')

log.info('soapDataItem = ' + soapDataItem)
log.info('jdbcDataItem = ' + jdbcDataItem)

assert soapDataItem == jdbcDataItem

     

    Note: I've just made up the property expansions as an example, To get your actual data from within the Groovy script editor you can always use the right click menu "Get Data" option. This allows you to construct your property expansion via a visual point and click method.

     

    An alternative to the above Groovy method, might be to put an Assertion Test Step after the JDBC test step, using this instead.

Use Xmlholder to get the nodeValue or values method as per your requirement. if you use nodevalues method then iterate it and store the values in string or set the values @ any property level project/testsuite/testcase as per your requirement  and then compare the two values using .equals method of String class. I am assuming you must be saving db column values some where inthe code. 

/*for (def item in arr)
{
log.info item
}*/

 

import com.eviware.soapui.support.XmlHolder
def req= context.expand ('${SOAPRequest#request}')
def res=context.expand ('${SOAPRequest#response}')

def xml=new XmlHolder(res)

log.info xml.getNodeValue("//m:dGame[1]")

def arr=xml.getNodeValues ("//m:dGame")
