    Or you can pass those parameters to the testrunner as arguments and you'll be able to access them at the Project level.
    High level pseudo example:

     

    SOAPUI_RUNNER=${SOAPUI_HOME}/bin/testrunner.sh
SOAPUI_COMMAND="${SOAPUI_RUNNER} "${SOAPUI_TESTS_DIR}/${TEST_SUITE}" -I -f \"${RELATIVE_REPORT_DIR}\" \
                  -PmyCustomEndpoint=httpEndpointHere \
                  -PsecondParameter=secondValue \
                  ${ANY_OTHER_PREDEFINED_SOAPUI_EXTRA_ARGS}"
  echo "Running: ${SOAPUI_COMMAND}"
  sh -c "${SOAPUI_COMMAND}"

     

    And then you'll use that as an endpoint for your http test step: ${#Project#myCustomEndpoint}/api/v2
