sharing value in groovy script

if nothing else you can probably create "PropertiesTestStep" and save data there or just into properties of your Testcase.
not the best option, but i it shall work.

yea now I use method setPropertyValue that has two parameters both string. So firstly I must convert int to string than create property then in second groovy script a read this value and convert it to the integer, this work but I looking for some more simply and better solution.

Hi again,
now I need to share sql instance. Is it possible ? In setup script I want to establish connection and in test step just want to use this variable.

I have following steps in my Single Testcase.

Data source
Create operation
DB Checker
Get operation
Datasource Loop


I'm using Data source to fectch values from DB and feeding to my Create operation

And then doing Groovy script step to verify values fetched from DB

fetching of one of my response value from Create operation and feeding to get operation

Looping above 3 steps through Datasource loop step


Now, I want to create a setup script where I want to intialize DB connection. Since I do not want to open and close DB connection for every of my testcase. I tried placing following piece of code in setup script tab. However, while running my DB_Checker step, UI complains that it could NOT find property sql which is defined in setup script. ANY help will be useful

 import groovy.sql.Sql;
    def MA_UUID;
    def ERR_MESSAGE = "DATABASE MISMATCH ";
    def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils( context );

    def sql = Sql.newInstance("jdbc:db2://IP_ADDRESS:60000/DB_NAME", "USERNAME","PASWORD", "com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver");

ok I found the answer http://onebyteatatime.wordpress.com/200 ... in-soapui/
