Thanks you folks for all your suggestions ! I opted to choose to integrate our existing soapUI tests (created using soap UI Free version) and to call test runner utility from Jenkins .
I followed these below steps however job seems to never finish : I had to abort the job , Not sure how we can check if utility is getting called at this point ? Any advise is much appreciated . Let me know if i missed any configuration steps or not calling utility correctly via windows command line options
Downloaded jenkins locally -Jenkins ver. 2.76
Create a job in jenkins and configured job to execute window command line option :
start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\SoapUI-5.2.1\bin\testrunner.bat" -sGetRenBatchesTestSuite -cGetRenbatches -r -a -f"C:\Program Files\SmartBear\SoapUI-5.2.1\bin\TestResults" -I C:\Users\xyzusername\GitHub\ren-api2\Tests\Automated_Test\GetRenBatches-soapui-project.xml
click build now on new job created
Job never finished so aborted the job and console output log shows as

I have had testrunner running on jenkins build
The only difference I am using a pro version
open source should be not much different
Is that the correct location
"C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\SoapUI-5.2.1\bin\testrunner.bat"
Try your command using command line prompt
I usually do that before adding it to my jenkins build.
Like i mentioned earlier in my post I was able to run using command line prompt and also based on the log it is reading from correct location as highlightened in bold -"C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\SoapUI-5.2.1\bin\testrunner.bat"
