Load global properties using a relative path

Hi!

Try using this in a Groovy Script to get the current project's path:

testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.path

You can assign this to a project property as follows:

testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.setPropertyValue( "MyProperty", testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.path) 

...and then use it like this:

${#Project#MyProperty}

Hope this helps!

Hi,
I try to add the code you provided at "Load Script" of the Project level.. and I am getting "groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: testRunner for class: Script7" error.

Do I need to add any imports to the script? or do I need any libraries? I just installed SoapUIPro.

thanks
PJ

Hi,
I am able to create groovy using following code at test case level and set the property for the path file name to be loaded.

def path = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getPath();
int pathIdx = path.lastIndexOf("\\");
String pathS = path.substring(0, pathIdx);
log.info("pathS is: " + pathS);
String propFilePath = pathS.concat("\\Global.properties");
log.info("propFilePath is: " + propFilePath)
testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.setPropertyValue( "propFilePath", propFilePath)

The output log shows:
Wed Jul 06 16:32:53 EDT 2011:INFO:pathS is: Z:\LoadOpenShift
Wed Jul 06 16:32:53 EDT 2011:INFO:propFilePath is: Z:\LoadOpenShift\Global.properties

The property "propFilePath" and it's value is set at the project level successfully. Now I am trying to load this external property file at project level giving "${#Project#propFilePath}" value but, I am still getting following error:

Wed Jul 06 16:34:05 EDT 2011:ERROR:An error occured [${#Project#propFilePath} (The system cannot find the file specified)], see error log for details

All I want is I want to load external global property file at project level so, that I can give user option of changing the endpoint server names to apply for the project.

Please help me solve this as I am blocked by this.
thank you
PJ

What command are you using to open the file that gives that error?

Not sure if this topic is relevant to your scenario: http://www.soapui.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=329

By the way, flexible handling of multi-environment projects will be one of the features in the upcoming soapUI 4.1.

Henrik,
I am trying to load this property-file using "Loads Property valies from an external file" option of "Properties" at Project level. (Not fromt the test case level).
When we select "Loads Property valies from an external file", SoapUI pops a dialog box to provide File to load..here I am giving "${#Project#propFilePath}".. I can see that "propFilePath" got set from the groovy script below. But the path is not getting evaluated at load time.
The topic you provided below is a simple load at the test case level..But I am loading at project level with project properties in the path..

Here is the error.log
Wed Jul 06 17:05:31 EDT 2011:ERROR:java.io.FileNotFoundException: ${#Project#propFilePath} (The system cannot find the file specified)

Hi PJ,

this dialog does not accept property expansions as you specify, and anyhow it only loads from the specified file only once.

Could you perhaps put the loading of these properties into the Projects' onLoad script?
