[Res] Calling test cases and test steps

Hello,

Try this:

def project = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project

testRunner.runTestStep( project.testSuites['TESTSUITE1'].testCases['TESTCASE1'].testSteps['TESTSTEP6'] )
testRunner.runTestStep( project.testSuites['TESTSUITE1'].testCases['TESTCASE2'].testSteps['TESTSTEP8'] )

//... etc.

Dear Dain,

Thank you very much for the code - I enter my project details and it correctly attempts to launch the selected script but all I get is a Script Result Information message. The groovy script I am wishing to call in itself calls other test steps within that test case - the called script does work standalone when you run it by selecting it individually, but nothing happens when it is called with your provided code - just the information message. Maybe I have to include other parameters to make it run? Like references to property values?

I made a test groovy script with a log.info message and that worked when it is called, so the script call code works, but I don't understand why it doesnt run all the steps in the actual script I want to call.


Here is another script I try to call - it has an assertion which should fail as the data is not matched correctly but when you call it I get a "Information Message" that the script ran - but no assertion failure message. The called script is:

 
 // Display the number of <transmission> tags shown in the XML file
 log.info "NUMBER OF XML DOCUMENT TAGS ARE " + testRunner.testCase.testSteps["PropertiesXML"].getPropertyValue("<transmission> XML tag count")


 // Display the number of <transmission> tags shown in the XML file
 log.info "NUMBER OF DB DOCUMENT TAGS ARE " + testRunner.testCase.testSteps["PropertiesDB"].getPropertyValue("<transmission> DB Tag Count")
 
 // <transmission> tag count between DB and XML
 if (testRunner.testCase.testSteps["PropertiesXML"].getPropertyValue("<transmission> XML tag count") == testRunner.testCase.testSteps["PropertiesDB"].getPropertyValue("<transmission> DB Tag Count"))
 {log.info "MATCH"}else{log.info("MISMATCH - <transmission> count FAILED" )}

 // Check and log <transmission> tag count between DB and XML
 assert testRunner.testCase.testSteps["PropertiesXML"].getPropertyValue("<transmission> XML tag count") == testRunner.testCase.testSteps["PropertiesDB"].getPropertyValue("<transmission> DB Tag Count")

Best regards,
Armen

Here is more information about the issue:

Here is my project structure:


Project-Soap
-----TestSuite1
---------TestCase1
------------GroovyMasterLauncher
---------TestCase2
------------JDBC:Count-DB-rows
------------Property-Transfer:Write-count-to-PropertiesDB
------------PropertiesDB
------------JDBC:Collect-DB-Values
------------Property-Transfer:Write-DB-Values-to-PropertiesDB
------------SOAP:Call-WS
------------Property-Transfer:Write-WS-Values-to-PropertiesXML
------------PropertiesXML
------------GroovyScript


Instead of running Test Case 2 directly all I want is to run is the "GroovyScript" (the last step in Test Case 2) as all the steps shown in Test Case 2 are called from this groovy script, aswell as parsing, sorting and comparison code. Running just the GroovyScript directly works great.

Then I create a test case (Test Case 1) at the top of the same Project and create a high level groovy master launcher with the code below:


def project = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project

testRunner.runTestStep( project.testSuites['TestSuite1'].testCases['TestCase2'].testSteps['GroovyScript'] )


When I execute this all I get is a "Script-result: com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.teststeps.WsdlTestStepResult@92f610"


The aim is to have a high level groovy script which calls other groovy scripts located in each test case.

Thanks again,
Armen

Dear all,

Is there a solution to this ? Like a top level shell script calling groovy steps in each test case?

Thanks,
Armen

Hi Armen,

I think the problem is that the testRunner.testCase object in your script will resolve into TestCase1, since the testRunner is from running that TestCase. Maybe you could put the groovy script in TestCase 2 as the first TestStep and then run that TestCase instead of running the TestStep? ie

def runner = testRunner.testCase.testSuites.testCases["TestCase 2"].run( null, false )
etc..

Does that make sense?

regards!

Hi Ole,

Thanks for the info but changing the order of the groovy script affects the entire test case - I will have to investigate why this is happens.

I have found one way to bypass this by disabling all items in the test case except for the groovy script - this way you can run it from the test case. I use the following code below to launch a test step but what is the command to launch the test case "Testcase2" please?

def project = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project

testRunner.runTestStep( project.testSuites['TestSuite1'].testCases['TestCase2'].testSteps['GroovyScript'] )

Once I get the testcase run command I can try to see if disabling all test steps except the groovy step will work.

Best regards,
Armen

Hi Ole,

Thanks again for the info but I cannot get it to work - here is the actual complete code I use:

I create a testcase called "Master Launcher" which is first in the testsuite "E-GREFFE XML STRUCTURE" and create a groovy teststep and use the following code:

def runner = testRunner.runTestStep( project.testSuites['E-GREFFE XML STRUCTURE'].testCases['eventList'].run( null, true )
runner.waitUntilFinished()

This attempts to call the second testcase in the testsuite called "eventList" but I get the following error:

org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed: Script10.groovy: 4: unexpected token: runner @ line 4, column 1. runner.waitUntilFinished() ^

Any ideas ?

Thanks again,

That error, "unexpected token: runner" looks like it is because you have an unmatched set of parenthesis. Add one more ")" to the end.

Hi!

the line should be just

def runner = project.testSuites['E-GREFFE XML STRUCTURE'].testCases['eventList'].run( null, true )
...


Does that help?
