Need help getting started with Groovy scripts
I'm working with SoapUI Pro 3.0.1, and am quite a newbie with it. I have constructed a previous test that used a file datasource. But it was a CSV file, so it was pretty easy to read the values into p...

Hi Robert,
Thanks for the links. I'd seen most of that, but was still confused. After playing around with it today, I have a much better feel. But I'm still having a problem.
Where is the pro forum? When I go to the 'Forums' link it take me to http://www.eviware.com/forums/ which only shows this forum, and an 'eviware general' forum.
My test flow is:
1. Properties step - initializes a few static properties
2. Groovy script - creates a BufferedReader and a PrintWriter that are stored in the context
3. Groovy Datasource - retrieves the BufferedReader, reads and parses a line, stores values in the result map
4. Property Transfer - copies properties from the static properties step and the Groovy Datasource into the Request
5. SOAP Test Request
6. Groovy Datasink - extracts values from the Response, retrieves the PrintWriter, and writes values from the response out to the file
7. Datasource loop - Datasource Step is Groovy Datasource, and Target Step is Property Transfer
8. Groovy script - closes the BufferedReader and PrintWriter
When I run the test it works great for the first record in the file, but the datasource loop step fails with "-> Missing dataSource step [] in DataSourceLoop". What could be causing this? I don't understand the message, since the datasource step does exist.
Thanks,
Dave
