Using Reg Expressions in Xpath assertion
Hi, Is it possible to supply a regular expression as the value to validate against in the xpath assertion rather than a wildcard character? Cheers Cormac

Hi Cormac,
you can use the regex support in xpath 2.0 for this; if you want the text of a certain element to match a certain regex, specify the following:
matches( //somelement/text(), '.*' )
and set the expected value to true or false (whichever you want)
The matches function available in soapUI is documented at

Hope this helps!
