    Actuall I think I figured it out.

     

    def request = new XmlSlurper().parseText(mockRequest.requestContent)
    def a = request.Body.Transaction.TransactionId
    context.transId = a

     

    So now my response uses the same TransactionId as the request.

     

    However if anyone has any better way to do this please let me know.

Hiya couple of other methods

 

//with xml based request

def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils( context )

def holder = groovyUtils.getXmlHolder(mockRequest.requestContent)

def transID = holder.getNodeValue("//TransactionId")

 

//non xml based request

def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils( context )

def queryContext = mockRequest.getRequestContext()

def transID = queryContext.get("TransactionId")

    Is there a similar Sample for JSON/ REST vs SOAP/XML?

        following on

         

        if you're not bothered about any manipulation of the data and simply want to include input parameter values within the json response simply include the variable within the json response by using ${NonOptVarName} or ${#OptVarName}

         

        i.e.

        using /myreq/person/{name}/gumf?year={year}

         

        putting in the values

                  /myreq/person/mike/gumf?year=2016

         

         

        the reponse would use

        {

              "Name" = "${name}"

              "Year" = ${#year}

        }
