Making sequence numbers

I have not found out how to do this functionality: myNum starts as 1. <myTag> <option>${DataGen#myNum}</option> // should put 1 in here <option>${DataGen#myNum }</option> // should put 2 in here...

  1. Create a testcase property called myNum (looks like you already have this), and set it to 0.

  2. Your test case should have:
    <myTag>
       <option>${=${#TestCase#myNum} + 1}</option> // should put 1 in here
       <option>${=${#TestCase#myNum} + 2}</option> // should put 2 in here
       <option>${=${#TestCase#myNum} + 3}</option> // should put 3 in here
    </myTag>

  3. Create a testcase Tear Down script:

    def lastOption = context.expand( '${#ResponseAsXml//option[last()]}' )
    testCase.setpropertyValue("myNum", lastOption)

    4. Disclaimer: this may need some fine tuning, but hopefully you get the idea.
