Mock Service Response Logic

Hello Team,

I'm just getting into Mocking Up Services and discovered this is such great functionality. However, I need help with placing logic into my Mock Responses.

I have built two mock responses. I have also built two requests. I need to build logic in the Mock Service to return the associated response to the correct request.

How should I approach this? Do I create a Dispatch Script? If so, do I build a if statement in groovy in order to return back the correct response?

Thanks

    I have a request with three input parameters.

    These three values will return my expected response. I have 9 different scenarios that will each return a different response. I have a test step already created that will call the mockservice, but I need to be able to branch on the request coming and provide the associated response.

    <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ust="http://www.test.com">
    <soapenv:Header/>
    <soapenv:Body>
    <ust:Cre>
    <ust:A>A</ust:A>
    <ust:C>X</ust:C>
    <ust:F>B</ust:F>
    </ust:Cre>
    </soapenv:Body>
    </soapenv:Envelope>

    Expected Return

    <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ust="http://www.test.com">
    <soapenv:Header/>
    <soapenv:Body>
    <ust:CreResponse>
    <ust:CreList>
    <!--0 to 100 repetitions:-->
    <ust:Cre>
    <ust:CreKey>${guidVal}</ust:CreKey>
    <ust:CreType>A</ust:CrwType>
    <ust:CreReqQty>4</ust:CreReqQty>
    <ust:FDay>
    <!--Optional:-->
    <ust:FDayPeriod>Basic</ust:FDayPeriod>
    <!--Optional:-->
    <ust:FPeriodCode>B</ust:FPeriodCode>
    <!--Optional:-->
    <ust:DLength>1080</ust:DLength>
    <!--Optional:-->
    <ust:MaxPeriod>16</ust:MaxPeriod>
    <!--Optional:-->
    <ust:MinPeriod>12</ust:MinPeriod>
    </ust:FDay>
    <!--1 or more repetitions:-->
    <ust:DPosition>

    <ust:CCode>M</ust:CCode>
    <ust:Cert>qualified</ust:Cert>
    <ust:CCode>P</ust:CeCode>
    <ust:CePosition>P</ust:CPosition>
    <!--Optional:-->
    <ust:CreReqQty>1</ust:CreReqQty>
    </ust:DPosition>
    </ust:Cre>
    </ust:CreList>
    </ust:CreResponse>
    </soapenv:Body>
    </soapenv:Envelope>

    I keep getting a script returned [null]. I'm confused as to why.

    // create XmlHolder for request content
    def holder = new com.eviware.soapui.support.XmlHolder( mockRequest.requestContent )

    // get arguments
    def arg1 = holder["//*:ACode"]
    def arg2 = holder["//*:CrType"]
    def arg3 = holder["//*:FPeriod"]

    // Select valid response randomly
    if( arg1 = 'C' & arg2 = '2LM")
    return "Simple Response"
