passing values from multiple scripts

I have three scripts each script calls the other script and needs to pass back a value to the original calling script.   Script 1 loops all my properties until a condition is met. Then it passes t...

    ok I figured it out, how to pass a MAP to another groovy script and modify it.

    This is how I did it.

    1. create your map

    2. serialize your map

    3. save you map as a test case property

    4. in the script your calling, all you have to do is de-serialize the property and use it like a map.

     

    See code below:

     

    import groovy.json.JsonBuilder

    def scripts
    def sumNum1
    testRunner.testCase.removeProperty("map")
    def map2 = [:]
    def n


    for(i=0;i<testRunner.testCase.getPropertyNames().size();i++){
    n = testRunner.testCase.getPropertyAt(i).getValue()
    def y = testRunner.testCase.getPropertyAt(i).getName()
    map2.put(y,n)

    }


    scripts = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.testSuites["sand_box"];
    scripts.testCases["TestCase 1"].testSteps["Groovy1"].run(testRunner, context);

    builder = new JsonBuilder()
    builder(map2)

    testRunner.testCase.setPropertyValue("map",builder.toString())

    sumNum1 = context.myClass1.myMethod(context.testCase)

     

     

    class script:

    import groovy.json.JsonSlurper


    context.setProperty("myClass1", new MyClass());

    class MyClass extends GroovyTestCase{

     

     

    def slurper
    def V3
    def m

    def myMethod(x){
    slurper = new JsonSlurper()


    V3 = x.getPropertyValue("map")

    m = slurper.parseText(V3)

    return m["C1"]

    }
    }

Well I was trying to make my code modular.

1. Create a groovy class in a separate file with (.groovy extension),

2. create methods corresponding to your scripts

3. Add a groovy script test step, 

4. In the groovy test step create the object of the file 

5. Call all the functions as required

 

 

Attached is screenshot to add the class file to your project.

      So not exactly what I was looking for

      lets say I have the following structure see below.

       

      TestSuite1

       - testCase1

       - Script reads in data from a file and saves it to a MAP. I then want to pass this MAP to another TestCase2-1 and manipulate the MAP data.

       

      TestSuite2

       -testCase2-1

         - testStep Groovy script. What I need to do here using the values from "TestCase1" MAP is do some test parsing and replace the MAP values.

       

      Any help would be appreciated.

        I figured it out

         

        TestSuite1

         - testCase1

            - Groovy Script   

              context.setProperty("myClass1", new MyClass());

              class MyClass extends GroovyTestCase{
                def V3

                 def myMethod(x){
                   x[1] = "NEW VALUE"
                  V3 = x
               return V3
              }
            }

         

        TestSuite2

         -testCase2-1

           - Groovy Script
              def scripts
              def sumNum1

              scripts = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.testSuites["zique_sand_box"];
              scripts.testCases["TestCase 1"].testSteps["Groovy1"].run(testRunner, context);

         
             sumNum1 = context.myClass1.myMethod(context.testCase.getPropertyNames())
             log.info sumNum1.toString()
