How to extract a value from a label if the label is repeated

Hi all   I'm newbie with SOAP but i'm trying to do my best with my very first TestSet automation.   At the moment (most of the test case is done) i have only one issue, i don't know how to look i...

    As stated, using find you will only get the first result, so no issues with multiple results. The alternative would be findAll.

     

    To solve the error you just need to make sure the result for categoryCode is a String by getting the text(). Same thing as the line above it.

      

    String categoryCode = new XmlSlurper().parseText(context.response)
     .CategoryOption
     .find {it.PriceInfos.PriceInfo.find { it.'@BreakdownType'.text() == "02 A" }}
     .'@PricedCategoryCode'.text()

    context.testCase.setPropertyValue('CategoryList', categoryCode)

    Sorry I missed this before.

    coopernico46,
    See demo script. (use "log.info" instead of println)

    https://ideone.com/GIA7pN

     

    See the colored text (changes)

    def categoryCode = new XmlSlurper().parseText(context.response).'**'.find{ 
    it.PriceInfos.PriceInfo.find {
        it.'@BreakdownType'.text() == "02 A"
    }
}.@PricedCategoryCode?.text()
context.testCase.setPropertyValue('PricedCategoryCode', categoryCode)

Yes, as suggested by nmrao, add the code as a Script Assertion on your request test step. To transfer to a project property, use setPropertyValueByName:

 

new XmlSlurper().parseText(xml)
 .CategoryOption.find { 
    it.PriceInfos.PriceInfo.find { it.'@BreakdownType'.text().contains('C') && it.'@Amount'.text() == "100.00" }
}.'@PricedCategoryCode'
 .with { context.project.setPropertyValueByName("Some property", it) }

Hi JHunt and nmrao

 

I just modify a little bit the script due to:

 

- My properties are in a testCase level, not at project level 

- I decided to filter just by one of the properties,

- To add the xml = context.response 

 

So,at this moment, the script look as you see below:

 

def xml = context.response
new XmlSlurper().parseText(xml)
.CategoryOption.find { 
it.PriceInfos.PriceInfo.find { it.'@BreakdownType'.text() == "02 A" }
}.'@PricedCategoryCode'
.with { context.testCase.setPropertyValueByName("PricedCategoryCode", it)}

but when i try to execute, the system always send me the message 

 

No signature of method: groovy.util.slurpersupport.NodeChildren.setPropertyValueByName() is applicable for argument types: (java.lang.String, groovy.util.slurpersupport.Attributes) values: [PricedCategoryCode, ]

After a lot of Headaches i think that the problem could be that, there is more than one

@PricedCategoryCode

 

that meet my conditions. Could this be possible? how can i solved it (for example taken the first @PriceCategoryCode that meet my conditions)?

 

Thank you so much for your appreciated support

    coopernico46,

    Do you need to use the extracted for the same test case or is it required for the tests across the project?

      Hi nmrao

       

      Just for the testCase all my properties are at testcase level

       

      in this testCase i just need to assure that the script choose a category that meet my conditions, so for example if there are two or three @PricedCategoryCode that meet my conditions no matther which one will be populated to my propertie (all will works for my porpouse) if meet that

       

      @BreakdownType'.text() == "02 A"

       

      best regards

        //Script Assertion
def categoryCode = new XmlSlurper().parseText(context.response).CategoryOption.find{ 
    it.PriceInfos.PriceInfo.find {
        it.'@BreakdownType'.text().contains('C') && it.'@Amount'.text() == "100.00"
    }
}.'@PricedCategoryCode'
context.testCase.setPropertyValue('CATEGORY_CODE', categoryCode)

        In the following test steps use ${#TestCase#CATEGORY_CODE} whereever it is needed.
