    hi pankajmalinda

     

    ServiceTypeResponse is not getting data from your response. Update it and it will work fine

     

    Do like if you find it as solution!!

     

    Thanks,

Hey, classic SoapUI namespace gotcha — even if you declared ns2, sometimes the response uses a default namespace or the nodes are nested deeper than you think.

Quick fix: slap this after your holder line to see what’s really there holder.getNodeValues("//[local-name()='ServiceType']").text()

If that returns "Air", your XPath just needs to dodge the namespace: //*:ServiceType or the local-name() trick.

I always snap vibeo the raw response + my debug logs when this happens — one-click clip and I can zoom in later without rerunning the whole test. Saved me hours on these XML hunts
