How to execute a SQL query which includes temp table ( creates and inserts ) - JDBC Step

  I have a JDBC test step with a SQL Query which  has a temp table on it. I am not able to execute this query. Every time i try to execute i get below XML response. Anyone has any idea? Thanks.    ...

    This is solved, i used

     

    def a = context.expand( '${DataSource#a}' )
    def b = context.expand( '${DataSource#b}' )

     

    sql.eachRow("""Declare @PortfolioOldCode varchar(3) = ${a},
    @EndDate Date = ${b},

     

    insted of 

     

    sql.eachRow("""Declare @PortfolioOldCode varchar(3) = context.expand( '${DataSource#a}' ),
    @EndDate Date = context.expand( '${DataSource#b}' )

     

    or

     

    sql.eachRow("""Declare @PortfolioOldCode varchar(3) = a,
    @EndDate Date = b

Based on what I know of JDBC test steps and queries, this would be the expected result of a SQL query that creates/inserts. What are you expecting to see in return?

    So basically the query Declares some parameters, create temp table, inserts into that table from Stored proc . Then it does some data manipulation on that temp table and selects some columns to display. It should return the results with columns that are selected ( which it does in sql server ). But in JDBC step on SOAP UI it doesn't. Also, if i try to run any-other query which doesn't have create and insert statement in query it works fine.

      If you want to avoid using groovy script, is it possible to separate the SQL query into a few JDBC request test steps?

       

      Step 1 create temp table, inserts etc

      Step 2 selects some columns to display

      Step 3 drop table if necessary

        I tried it in multiple steps

         

        Step 1 : to create temp table and insert

        Step 2. Selection

        Step 3 : Drop temp table.

         

        It didn't worked for me . Step 1 is fine , but nothing in step 2. At this moment, i moved to groovy script and i am facing a new challenge. Please let me know if you are aware on how to. 

         

        I was trying to send input data ( to SQL query ) from the excel sheet. I did fallowing

         

        1. Get data from DataSoruce ( which is excel sheet )

         

        def a = context.expand( '${DataSource#a}' )
        def b = context.expand( '${DataSource#b}' )

         

        2. I tried to see the output in the log output panel to see if this is pulling the data

        log.info (a) 

        log.info (b)

         

        i see the log just fine. Seems ok.

         

        3. Then i am tring to send these DataSource value in the sql parameter so that i can test n number of scnerios. I am not able to data drive the parameter in the groovy. I did fallows.

         

        sql.eachRow ('''Declare @PortfolioOldCode varchar(3) = ${DataSource#a},
        @EndDate Date = ${DataSource#b}

         

        --- This doesnt work..

         

        Also, tried this

         

        sql.eachRow ('''Declare @PortfolioOldCode varchar(3) =  a,
        @EndDate Date = b

         

        sql.eachRow ('''Declare @PortfolioOldCode varchar(3) = :a,
        @EndDate Date = :b

         

        - none of these worked.

         

        Any one has any suggestion on how can i tackle this.
