getProperty("rawRequest") does not return the 'real' request sent

I'm using a REST request (POST) that look like this:   <ns1:Bundle>          <ns1:id value="${=UUID.randomUUID().toString()}"/>          <ns1:timestamp value="${=new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("y...

    JanPot, the properties of SoapUI objects are not always simple strings.

     

    Sometimes the naming of user interface label does not correspond directly to the object bellow.

     

    In your case the rawRequest triggers the request evaluation (inline groovy code is evaluated) and then you get a brand new raw request. However, it is not the last message exchange of the test step run.

     

    When I need to get the request or response message of the last test step run, I use testRunner.getResults() collection, which contains WsdlTestRequestStepResult instances for SOAP Request test steps.

     

    Anyway, more description in SoapUI API documentation would be helpful to avoid such confusions.

Thanks Karel,

 

This is finally what I did, but I cannot get it out of my head that this is a bug :-) Why say that the getProperty returns the value of the rawRequest when it is not ?

 

Regards,

 

Jan

    Hi Karel,

     

    thank you very much for your help. I tried to apply your last solution, but I can't kind a get to understand it... Would you be so helpful and tell me how I could use testRunner.getResults() collection in the context of my example ?

     

    Regards,

      JanPot, I believe the right way for your use case is to utilize the test case properties.

       

      But if you are interested how to get the request and response messages of the last test run, you can check this code:

       

      import com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.teststeps.WsdlTestRequestStepResult

testRunner.results.each {
        def stepResult = it
        if (stepResult instanceof WsdlTestRequestStepResult) {
            log.info stepResult.getStatus().toString()
            log.info stepResult.getRequestContent()
            log.info stepResult.getResponseContent()
        } 
}

        The only thing I get is an Information pop-up with Script-result: []

        I don't know if this helps, but "log.info testRunner" returns:
