Stop load test suite execution from groovy script.

Hi.   The first step in my test suite is SOAP ping request. I want to stop further test suite execution if ping step does not return "alive". What I tried to do: Add a groovy step after SOAP pin...

The more I work with SoapUI the more **bleep**ty it seems to me :(

 

This:

loadTestRunner.cancel( "Cancelling LoadTest" )

being placed in load test setup script has no effect on load test execution at all. How to use it then??

    Hi,

     

    Whilst SoapUI has its aged parts and rough edges, I prefer to think of them as opportunities for improvement! :-)

     

    In terms of your problem, if I am understanding you right you have something like:

     

    TestCase:

    1.Soap Request (get ping result)

    2.Groovy TestStep (test ping result and conditionally stop load test)

     

    The above TestCase is then run from a load test.

     

    Could you instead maybe try to conditionally stop the load test from within the TestCase rather than in the Load Test's setup script? Maybe something like:

     

    if( context.LoadTestRunner!= null )
context.LoadTestRunner.cancel( "Cancelling LoadTest" )
