How to associate the response with the expected result (in data source) please?

Hi Jerry,

you could do this in SoapUI via groovy script. You need 4 steps in your TestCase:

1. DataSource

2. Soap-call

3. Groovy-script for checking the result from the saop-call with your expected result (see below)

4. DSL to get to the start of the loop again

Your groovy script could look like this:

import com.eviware.soapui.support.XmlHolder;
def assertionList = [];
def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils( context );
def holder = groovyUtils.getXmlHolder(testRunner.testCase.testSteps["<name of the saop-teststep to be executed>"].testRequest.response.getContentAsXml());

// get the result from the soap call
def soap_result = holder.getNodeValue("<xpath to the tag which holds the result>");

// get the expected result from the datasource
def ds = testRunner.testCase.testSteps['DataSource']; // name of the datasource
def dsExpectedResult = ds.getPropertyValue("<name of the column in the datasource which contains the expected result>");

// compare expected with actual result

if ( dsExpectedResult != soap_result )

 log.info(" Actual and expected result do not match.");

Thanks a lot for the great help!

Jerry
