Specifying a composite file folder on testrunner.bat

Hi,

I'm running with SoapUI Pro 4.5.0. I created a test suite and saved it as a composite project. What do I specify for this project file on the testrunner.bat command line? I think it should be the folder that represents the composite file.

But, when I specify the path to the composite folder name on the testrunner.bat command line, I receive the message "Missing soapUI project file..".

Is this a bug in Pro 4.5.0 or am I doing this wrong?

    Hi,

    hmm... I wonder if those double quotes are confusing things - what if you use just

    testrunner.bat -s"Smoke Test" -c"SetPatientState" -I C:\Users\bgillcoat\Desktop\ADX-Automation-soapui-project

    If that doesn't help - what are the contents of the ADX-Automation-soapui-project folder?

    regards!

    The double quotes are the problem. I had to use double quotes to make windows power shell happy. But when I changed the command like to use single quotes and run from the regular windows cmd shell (not powershell), testrunner ran fine and picked up the composite file.

    Thanks for the support.
