Error writing to a file using Groovy
I'm trying to write Json assert results to an external file, I can create and write to the file, however when I try to append values to the file it throws an error.
In this code block when it just contain the log.info stmt it executes ok. If I add the append line if fails
resultsFile = testRunner.testCase.getPropertyValue("externalResultsFile")
testRunner.testCase.testSteps.each{ name,props ->
if(props.metaClass.respondsTo(props, "getAssertionList")){
// get assertionList
props.getAssertionList().each{
log.info "$it.label - $it.status"
resultsFile.append("$it.label - $it.status")
}
}
}The error returned by the debug button is:
groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: java.lang.String.append() is applicable for argument types: (org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.GStringImpl) values: [Match content of [ProductFamily] - VALID] Possible solutions: expand(), expand(int), find(), any(), grep(), any(groovy.lang.Closure) error at line: 23
Any help would be welcome, I've googled here and Stackoverflow but no joy.

The first thing I see is that you appear to be getting a file name stored as a property, but you aren't treating it as a file.
Try this line below? If that doesn't help I can try to dig in more later.
resultsFile = new File (testRunner.testCase.getPropertyValue("externalResultsFile"))
