How to fetch XML node in SOAP Ui through groovy?

Hi,

I am working on a project to automate the back end services. I am stuck on couple of points:

1. How to fetch a node from the XML response generated with one of the request in test suite? I want to fetch the value dynamically. I want to store that value in a variable and use it as per requirement to compare and pass on in some other request.
2. I need to connect to a particular column in database which contains the XML logs. Then fetch the numeric amount value from the XML and compare with the XML response I received through SOAP UI

any help or clue in this would be really appreciated.

    The groovy XmlSlurper might be your best option.



    As for comparing Xml, if it's supposed to be identical than I would just go a regex style comparison. If there will be differences, I would loop through each of the values and compare. If there is supposed to be a lot of differences, I would compare the values that you are attempting to validate.

    Thanks PaulM.

    I will try this. Since I am new to Groovy, can the objective be achieved by writing a piece of code to fetch the dynamic XML from the database and use in SOAP UI?
