How to set value smartly in test step in data-driven testing?

Hi,

 

Vi have soapui test steps and would like to convent to data-driven testing.  To take value from data source, now I manually copy and paste ${DBDataSource#value1}, ${DBDataSource#value2} to the corresponding field of request and result.  It is really time-consuming. Do you have any tips?  Can I use any groovy script to change the value of the request and result in test step? Do you have any groovy script example?

 

Thanks for your kind support in advance!

    If you're using SoapUI NG Pro, the Point and Click Testing will allow you to map your DataSource properties to inputs in your requests with the click of a button.

     

    For more information, please see this document.

      Thanks for your reply!

      While it takes more time to click and point from get data option than copy and paste, since I have to select from project - test suite- test case- test step- datasource - columns.

       

      Do you have any tips?  Thanks!

        I tried to clone data source and soap request. The usage helps.
