Not sure what the problem here to install on remote machine?

There are different type of installers available. One of them is zip file where you just need to unzip, and you are done.

Hi,

Problem is, how to download and install SOAPUI programmatically. So that manual intervention can be avoided when automation suite trigger from CI tool on a remote system.

Thanks,

Hari

      As part of CICD, Would like to install tool and execute the suite on remote machine, and remote machine would be a virtual machine/Cloud Space  crated over fly.

       

      Thanks,

      Hari

        If you need to automate the SoapUI installation, you can make a script:

        - download SoapUI ZIP archive (https://www.soapui.org/downloads/latest-release.html)

        - unzip it

        - set environment variables if needed

        - run tests

         

        If you need more effective and reusable solution, you can build e.g. a Docker container, configure it and use it wherever you need.
