Auto retry SOAP request on timeout
How can I get SOAP UI to resend a SOAP request (test step) automatically if it times out?
Forum Discussion
Does the response come back with some kind of message content? You can write a Groovy script to retry the test case if the response contains a particular message or code if this is the case?
No - unfortunately I get a java socket timeout exception:
Error getting response; java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out
Hi,
Sorry to drop in Mike, but as well as a Groovy option (which could still work e.g. if you set a successfulResponse property in a script Assertion based on the proper response being received and loop if this is false), have you considered the Conditional Goto TestStep:

You could maybe use a boolean XPath expression to loop if an element of a proper response is not found:

Just another option maybe thats more out-of-the-box?
