Export of test suit/case fails on windows for names with ":"

Export of test suit/case fails on windows for names with ":". That is disallowed character for windows file names and SoapUI ends up creating file with the name containing text up until that character, the rest of name is gone and final file size is 0. Modifying file name before saving (replace : with -) fixes this. I guess SoapUI should either report error with reason or do on-the-fly replacement of illegal characters.
  • Hi!

    Definitely a bug; is this with the latest version or nightly build or an earlier version?

    regards!

  • Hi again,

    exactly how are you exporting the TestCase or TestSuite to get this error? Is this with the latest nightly-build?

    regards!

  • Hi Ole,

    this happens with official 3.6.1, 3.5.1 and I'd suspect with something from 3.0 times as well because that's what some of the people around still use. No nightly builds here.

    To reproduce, simply right-click on a test suite/case and then choose "Export", write a name containing colon and confirm.

  • Hi Roman,

    Thanks. I've fixed the suggested filename to be normalized to a valid name before exporting, this is in the next nightly build so try it out tomorrow and let us know!
