Use testCase custom property to create dynamic request header in event

I created an event to use RequestFilter.filterRequest to populate REST call headers. Most of the testCases use "Accept, application/json" as header while some special testCases require "Accept, application/octet-stream". I include a custom property "Accept" in the special testCases and hope when event gets executed the Accept header can be populated dynamically. But the actual execution completely skip the if-else section. May I know did I miss anything?

 

 

import com.eviware.soapui.support.types.StringToStringMap

 

def headers = new StringToStringMap()

headers.put("Authorization", "Basic abcxyz123456....")
headers.put("Cache-Control", "no-cache")
headers.put("Pragma", " no-cache")
headers.put("Expires", " Sat, 01 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT")
headers.put("Content-Type", "application/json")

 

if(testRunner.testCase.hasProperty("Accept")) {
  headers.remove("Accept")
  headers.put("Accept", "application/octet-stream")
} else {
  headers.put("Accept", "application/json")
}

request.setRequestHeaders(headers)

    I think you should try below code:-

     

    import com.eviware.soapui.support.types.StringToStringMap

def headers = new StringToStringMap()

headers.put("Authorization", "Basic abcxyz123456....")
headers.put("Cache-Control", "no-cache")
headers.put("Pragma", " no-cache")
headers.put("Expires", " Sat, 01 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT")
headers.put("Content-Type", "application/json")

boolean str = testRunner.testCase.testSteps["Your Request"].testRequest.requestHeaders["Accept"]
log.info str
if(str) {
	log.info "123"
  headers.remove("Accept")
  headers.put("Accept", "application/octet-stream")
} else {
  headers.put("Accept", "application/json")
}

    It will go to if loop now.
