Loop Test to Run same test against 3 different endpoints

Hi folks,   is it possible to loop a test so that it fires a request against different end points?   I was hoping to fire a test against an endpoint, write out the response to excel;  loop again...

    nmrao, richie, thank you for the input. 

     

    axasmgaxa , it would be great if you could contact support and explain what behavior you would expect with DataSink, they’ll create a bug if needed. We will be waiting for the results. Thank you.

Hey axasmgaxa,

If you create a test with the following object hierarchy, will this not satisfy what you need?

Datasource
REST Request (endpoint1)
DataSink
REST Request (endpoint2)
DataSink
REST Request (endpoint 3)
DataSink
Datasource Loop

Wouldnt the above testcase satisfy what you need?

Cheers,

Rich

    Thanks richie for the reply,

    this was potentially the best solution, except SoapUI/ReadyAPI really doesn't like more than one datasink in one test case.

    I set it up as you had described, but only the last datasink outputs data to the excel sheet. (I think that might be a bug with Soap?)

    I tested it also, I deleted any two of the data sinks and the remaining datasink output data to the sheet.

    The same happened when any of the data sinks were left.

     

    Many Thanks for the response all the same.
