[SoapUI 5.2.1] mockRequest is NULL in REST MockService

I'm using SoapUI 5.2.1 and I have a REST MockService. Whenever I try to implement the following script, I get the NullPointerException .   Script: def requestBody = mockRequest.getRequestContent()...

    Hi,

     

    Like Rao said, we need a few more details, the functionality should definitely work. Here is my mock setup for reference:

    The output you can see in the (script) log is the result of me making a GET request of: http://localhost:9090/test?p=hello

     

    Regards,

    Rup

May be you want to show the updated script which you get this issue. And what values are being passed in the request and what value you wanted to read in the script dispatcher?

      How did you solve it ?

      I still get the exact same problem on 5.3.0

    Using rupert_anderson 's code, the green 'play' button pops up the 'mockRequest is Null' warning, because the mock request object is not def'd up.

     

    The mockRequest object is defined when a 'real' test executes the MockService endpoint.

     

    To test code while writing it I put the following TestCode code and click 'play' until I am done.

    Then I send a Test Step to call the MockService endpoint:

     

    def mockRequestrequestContent = "" 
    if (mockRequest != null) 
        mockRequestrequestContent = mockRequest.requestContent
    else 
        mockRequestrequestContent = "<testRequestXmlOrJson/>" 
    log.info(mockRequestrequestContent) 

    //begin script

    Note: The current version of SoapUI 5.50 doesn't have a log window at the bottom, trying to gather information to reply to your solution was challenging. I am new here, so might have missed a config setting somewhere :-)
