Out of Memory

Hi

 

I am having issues with memory usage by SOAP UI NG Pro (Ready! API). I have been through all the topics I could find and have made all the necessary and suggested changes, but still over time the memory usage increases until eventually it

runs of out memory.

 

Let me be clear, I don't mind losing any audit trail or logs or anything, as long as my entire TestSuite can execute without running out of memory.

 

This is what I have done already, with screenshots attached.

 

Please assist.

 

1. In C:\Program Files\SmartBear\ReadyAPI-1.9.0\bin\ready-api.bat I have set the following. I am not even sure if one can allocate more than 8GB to Java, but I went all out and tried 16GB.

 

rem uncomment to override memory limit
set READY_XMX=16384m

 

2. On TestSuite Level, I have updated the Log Option for the Transaction Log to Disable logging.

 

3. On each TestCase Level, I have set 'Discard Successful Results' and Max Results: to 0.

      I logged a support request to Smartbear.

       

      The issue is that the option is to discard all successful test steps. I did not have validations on my REST services so the responses were not marked as successful and therefore kept in memory and not discarded.

       

      I have implemented the changes. It looks good so far, but I still need to do more tests.

       

      Thanks
