    Thank you Oct21  for the response.

     

    First <CDATA> part needs to be extracted and then extract the value that is needed.

     

    Use below Script Assertion for the first soap request itself and no extra groovy script required.

     

    /**
* Script Assertion for the first request
* Extracts the required id value
* and saves at test case level custom properties
* which can be used later steps
* where required
**/

assert context.response

def getData = { data, element ->
   new XmlSlurper().parseText(data).'**'.find {it.name() == element}
}

def inXmlStr = getData(context.response, 'TA_RegisterCandidateForAssessmentResult').text()

def receiptId = getData(inXmlStr, 'ReceiptId')
context.testCase.setPropertyValue('ID', receiptId.IdValue.toString())

    In the next request, use ${#TestCase#ID} where the value is needed.

Thanks for the help!

I have tried the groovy script, it created the custom property name idvalue but the value is not copied.

Please see the screnshot and let me know where i am wrong.

Sorry I dont know how to parse Soap Envelope.

 

But below code can work (i checked based on your soap response)

import groovy.util.XmlSlurper

response= testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName("Source Request Name").getPropertyValue("Response")

String parsedResponse = new XmlSlurper().parseText(response)
String IdValue = parsedResponse.toString().substring(349,355)

 

 

You can try changing substring range or work for better Soap XML parser

 

Regards,

Vijay

    vijayk1,

    One should not depend on the substring in this case as response content may vary.
