Test Runner bat via Octopus Deploy

I'm using Octopus Deploy to run a SOAPUI smoketest at the end of an installation. Im using Test Runner bat to start the whole process via Powershell :   cmd.exe /C "C:\Program Files\SmartBear\SoapU...

    SOAPUI was throwing up a UI screen about usage statistics that was preventing Octopus Deploy from continuing on running the TestRunner.bat.

     

    The solution was :

     

    Run Octopus Deploy tentacle manually

    Execute the Octopus Deploy steps for TestRunner.bat, This displays the usage statistics screen, click OK

    Start up SOAPUI, file > preferences > UI Settings, Disable usage statistics - Check. Click OK. 

     

    The long term solution will be to save the preferences file and load it into TestRunner when the test is executing, but I haven't done this yet.

What im using to determine success at the moment is the output that I redirect to an output file.

 

When the run fails the output hangs with the following .,

 

rem ********* run soapui testcase runner ***********

More?

 

The "More?" makes me feel like its waiting for an input and therefore is hanging indefinitely until it gets the input.

Does the octopus generate any log for the executions?

    Interestingly enough another user had the same issue as me.

        Hi

        I have a similar problem.


        We are also intending to use SoapUI as part of a CI solution. But we are using SoapUI to run MockServices so that we can perform an end to end test and get a known responses from a MockService.

         

        I am executing mockservicerunner.bat from a C# class that executes the batch file mockservicerunner.bat using the Process class. I am also getting the error that you had.

         

        My output(see below)also shows that the mockservicerunner appears to stop with the More? prompt.
        I have checked the SoapUI 'Disable Usage Statistics' checkbox as you suggested, but for me this has made no difference.

         

        When I run mockservicerunner from a batch file with the same arguments the MockService is started successfully, see below.

         

        16:25:13,662 INFO [SoapUIMockServiceRunner] MockService started on port 8088 at path [/mockBizTalkOnRampServiceEndpoint]
        16:25:13,820 INFO [SoapUIMockServiceRunner] Started 1 runner
        Press any key to terminate...

         

        Do you think that I am getting the error becuase SoapUIMockServiceRunner blocks while it is running the MockService, "Press any key to terminate....". Could this give the same effect that you had when SOAPUI was throwing up a UI screen about usage statistics?
        If it is that then I am not sure how to resolve the problem.

        Any help gratefully received as I am making no progress with this issue.

         

        This is the output I get from the failing execution:

         

        Received from standard out:del %TEMP%\jfxrtpath | />
        Received from standard error: | />

        Received from standard out: | />
        Received from standard out:More? | />
        Received from standard out: | />

         

        Many thanks,
