Teststep: Datagen and adding a value starting with a space.

Hi,

hmm... probably not - what kind of DataGen property is this? List?

Hi Ole,

Yes, the generated property is of a list-type.

Hi,

ok - and exactly how are you inserting/expanding the property?

Hi Ole,

well after I've added the values in the list. I added (SOAP) test requests below.

I'd like the same value (of the 10 values randomized) to be used in all test requests. This works just fine.

But when I saw the RAW data of the XML (test requests) I noticed that the space in front of the value wasn't added.

So I basically used the standard functions, instead of a written script.

Hi,

ok - are you using a property-transfer or property-expansion to insert the value into the request?

Hi,

I'm using a propertyExpansion. I referring to the teststep "datagen" in the current testcase.

${DataGen#value}

edit: value is the list in the datagen.

Hi,

ok - I've traced this down in the code and now and it is as you have observed, the list values are trimmed before being returned from the list. A possible workaround is to have a list containing script expansions;

${=" value with a leading space"}
${="value with a trailing space "}

which will be inserted correctly into the request.

Hope this helps!
