multiple xpath expressions in an asseretion?
is it possible to have multiple xpath expression validations in a xpath assertion? for instance if I want to verify that several nodes of a soap response are being returned Xpath Expression: exist...

Hi,
XPATH Assertion will have either pass or fail status. Logically it won't be much effective if you try to combine multiple expressions in one as the assertion will fail if even one of the expression fails. And you will have to dig inside to check which failed. There fore all these should be in different assertions.
You can however write a script assertion and check for all the expressions. Initialize a counter to say 0 in your script. And increment that whenever you get a 'fail'. At the end, check for the value of counter. If its still 0 pass the script assertion otherwise fail it.
