    Seems you could do some creative workaround, such as:

     

    test.bat

    echo ENV123 > C:\env_name.txt
testrunner "myproject.xml"

    Project Load Script:

    project.setPropertyValue( "ENV_NAME", new file("C:/env_name.txt").text )
assert project.getPropertyValue("ENV_NAME") = "ENV123"

     

    I could have some typo since I haven't run this, but just to give you an idea...

In another post I raised, a better solution was provided.

https://community.smartbear.com/t5/SoapUI-Open-Source/can-I-know-in-the-project-load-Script-if-the-soapUI-project/m-p/179221#M28347

In short, the project properites are set from the command line after project load scirpt is executed.

But the system properties are set before.

So they can be used.

 

testrunner.bas <options to execute the project> -DIS_INVOKED_COMMANDLINE=true

if ('true' == System.getProperty('IS_INVOKED_COMMANDLINE')) {
//You business logic here
}
