property expansion in mocked responses

Hello,

after having read

http://www.soapui.org/Getting-Started/m ... ponse.html

I tried to use property expansion like ${#TestCase#TransactionId} for a mocked response. This test case property has been set in the test case' setup script and successfully referenced in a SOAP request test step. But for the mocked response this expression yields an empty string.

So my question:

Is property expansion possible in the same way as for SOAP request steps, e.g. using ${#TestCase#TransactionId}? Or is it only possible to use 'simple' properties like ${TransactionId}?

Thanks in advance

M

    Hi Ole,

    yes, I'm talking about SOAP Mock Response test steps.

    I've just double-checked:

    Putting

    <cus:TransactionId>${#TestCase#TransactionId}</cus:TransactionId>

    in the XML of the response of a Mock Response test step yields

    <cus:TransactionId></cus:TransactionId>

    As a work-around I've used this line in the script of the Mock Response test step

    context.setProperty('TransactionId',context.testCase.getPropertyValue('TransactionId'))

    and modified the above XML code to

    <cus:TransactionId>${TransactionId}</cus:TransactionId>

    This yields

    <cus:TransactionId>D0780100027579</cus:TransactionId>

    Thus I know that the test case property 'TransactionId' has been properly set.

    Perhaps I've hit a bug. I'm using 3.6.1 Open Source Edition.

    Cheers

    Hi!

    no, this should work.. do you mean a mocked response in a MockResponse TestStep?

    regards!
