    assert context.response

def getData = { data, element ->
	new XmlSlurper().parseText(data).'**'.find {it.name() == element}

The above script was provided to you as Script assertion for the Request test step, and that is not (does not work) if you use it in Groovy Script test step.

Can you confirm if you are using the above code in Script Assertion?

The script provided earlier was also used as a groovy test step, and the script am using now is also as a groovy test step.

You can check the screenshot i sent.

    If you read the post again, it clearly says Scipt Assertion (for the same step where you get the response). No additional step. Please correct it and try again.

      nmrao 

      I tried to use the script as script assertion to the request where i am getting the response. But i am getting the same error.

      Not sure what has changed, it is parsing the values but not able to pick the one which is described. 

      And the past script i used as a groovy script and worked perfectly.

      Could please check and help me again. Check the screenshot.

      Thanks again.

        The response in the earlier question has <CDATA> in it and the response attached in this does not have that. Hence you are getting that.
