    There are several ways to interact with XML strings, my preferred approach is the XmlSlurper, the following is a standalone example with your XML data:

     

    import groovy.util.XmlSlurper

def xmlData = '''\
<Response xmlns="http://localhost/v1.0.0/vnms/">
	<serial_number>102930478390026</serial_number>
	<site_id>a2db3129-172a-704b994c</site_id>
</Response>'''


def Response = new XmlSlurper().parseText(xmlData)
def serialNumber = Response.serial_number.text()

log.info('Serial Number = ' + serialNumber)

    The following page has all the details about the XmlSlurper

Hi, thank you for the response, i was wondering if ther is any way to use the "temp" variable in xmlData because i cannot hard code it in.

 

i am also just an intern at the moment, so i do not know much.

 

-thank you

You just need to change first statement

def xmlData = testRunner.testCase.testSteps.("TestCase").testRequest.response.getContentAsXml()

Rest of the script will be same
