Automate SoapUI
Hi There, I wonder; is there anyway to 'Automate' SOAPUI entirely? I mean; not only running tests, but also making them? And besides making them, also have stuff like adding and using environme...

Looking at what you want to do, using something like Jenkins to kick of a specific test or set of tests might be useful. We have several projects that we run using Jenkins, both kicked off manually or kicked off according to a schedule. It's pretty easy to do and can be set up so that the tests are running in their own workspaces, and thus isolated from each other from running the test point of view.
Thus you don't need to create the test projects each time, the test projects are defined once in SoapUI, but you just choose the test project you want to run from an existing list of test projects. Might mean you need less groovy skills to programatically create SoapUI projects on the fly.
Just a thought and a different approach that might meet your needs.
Hi There,
Sounds Ok, that Jenkins and i will definatelly look into it. It might be usefull for me in future, but its not what i want to do at this moment..
What i want to do is make the projects, testcases and teststeps every time i need to do my regression tests so that i don't have to keep track of every single alteration in the wsdl's.
Its supposed to become a time saver.
For this moment all i have to know is what groovy command i need to use to close project A and open project B. If i know that, then i can try (its all try and error atm) to get a step further...
The steps that i want to follow are:
1: automatically make projects
1.1 automatically fill some environment variables like different environment url's, different usernames/passwords, etc
2: automatically make testcases
3: automatically make teststeps
4: automatically fill the teststeps
5: run tests automatically and get a report
Step 1 is working (not 1.1, i will save that for later)
Step 2 isnt atm.
Step 5 is covered, i know how to do that
Ok, i managed to do steps 1 and 2
Atm i am really struggling with adding SOAP teststeps from the WSDL.
I have several operations in the WSDL, lets say: Create, CreateOrUpdate, Delete, Retrieve, etc.
Now i need to make 1 teststep for each operations in the wsdl automatically.
Does anyone know how to let groovy read the wsdl and make a teststep for each method found?
I am working with the following:
Project Test
Suite: Testsuite 1
Case: Testcase 1
Teststeps? (to be made)
Hi,
Sorry, I've been quiet on this topic, work has been very busy!
To create a project and import a WSDL did you see:
To create Projects / TestSuites / TestSteps / Requests with Groovy, I did something like this for REST services, please see:
Do these links help at all?
