Solved

how can I invalidate a test, if the data is not found on a database.

As can be seen I am new to SoapUI, so I suspect this will have been answered before, but I haven't found it yet. For our tests we select test items from a database, and then run the test using that i...

    Yes, this looks like the thing to do ...

    I have added a test step to the test case and got details out to the script log and it all looks OK 

     

     

    def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils(context)
    log.info('my log here')
    log.info('Just wanted to cancel this test ' + context.getCurrentStep().getLabel())

    testRunner.cancel('Just wanted to cancel this test ' + context.getCurrentStep().getLabel())

     

    In the test case log I get .... 

    • Test started at 2016-09-27 15:50:08.106
    • Step 1 [GAD.001: Overall status 1] OK: took 2074 ms
    • TestCase canceled [Just wanted to cancel this test GAD.001-Cancel-Test], time taken = 2096
    • Step 2 [GAD.001-Cancel-Test] CANCELED: took 22 ms

    But I get this in the error log, I have no idea why this is happening, I don't have any assertions on the results from the groovy script, it just stops the test as Canceled.

     

    Any help on how I should be getting rid of this error, if the groovy script is disabled, then the test passes its step1...

      My guess is that a later script in your test case (likely a teardown script) is iterating through the test steps and getting the assertion lists for each step, possibly to check for and report failures?

       

      Not all test steps implement the Assertable interface (this specifies the getAssertionList() method, for example the Groovy Script test step does not.

       

      You should find where you are calling the getAssertionList() method and add a check to see if the "current" test step is assertable before calling getAssertionList(), the following is an example Test Case teardown script that should get you started, it uses the Membership operator to check if a class implements an interface:

       

      // Loop through each test step in test case
// NOTE: getTestSteps() returns a Map with the step name as the key and the actual step as the value 
testCase.getTestSteps().each() { testStepName, testStep  ->
 // Check to see if current step implements the interface Assertable
 if (testStep in com.eviware.soapui.model.testsuite.Assertable){ 
  log.info 'The test step "' + testStep.getName() + '" implements the Assertable interface.'
 }
}

        OK, so the Cancel part worked correctly, it seems I had some code in the teardown script which was causing the problem.

         

        I found that out when I went to put your script to find the test step implementing that class .... which I put in the test case and it worked a treat.

         

        Thanks for your help I really appreciate it as this is all new to me.

      The signature of cancel method is

      testRunner.cancel("TestStepName")

       

      Also, you may just throw an error like below

       

      if (condition) {

       // do the when codition is met

      } else {

       throw new Error("Error cause is : blah")

      }
