    Hi,

    When you do:

    def file1 = new File('/temp/groovy1.txt')
file1 << mockRequest.getRequestContent()

    That should append to the file, the << is the same as .append()

     

    Did you try making multiple requests to your mock? The file should contain all of them.

     

    If you do this, I don't think you get a line break inserted - if you want one its easy to add, see

    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23410973/groovy-how-to-append-text-in-file-new-line

     

    Alternatively, you could consider creating one file per request or unique request - one exmple of this involves extracting some property of the request and appending it to the file name e.g.

     

    def requestXMLHolder = new com.eviware.soapui.support.XmlHolder(mockRequest.requestContent)
requestXMLHolder.declareNamespace("inv","http://www.test.samples/schema/invoice")
def requestInvoiceNo=requestXMLHolder.getNodeValue("//inv:getInvoice[1]/inv:invoiceNo[1]")

def file1 = new File('/temp/groovy1'+requestInvoiceNo+'.txt')

file1 << mockRequest.getRequestContent()

    Regards,

    Rupert

    Thanks for you reply.

    I'm just starting to learn groovy right now, so i admit i'm not that good in scripting.

    I tried to insert: 

    log.info(mockRequest.getRequestContent())

     to the "OnRequest Script" option in the mock, but i didn't see it prints something. What am I missing here?

      Hi,

       

      No problem about being new to scripting, I'll try to help you out where I can.

       

      Ok, so as background is:

      1. Your mock a REST service?
      2. Have you setup a POST action for the mock?

      If you have only setup a GET, the 

      log.info(mockRequest.getRequestContent())

      will return null.

       

      Regards,

      Rup

        My mock is a soap service. I loaded the WSDL into the mock. This mock acts as a client, so it only receives soap messages.

        I see the soap messages arrive to the mock in the mock log, but i want to run some validations on it.

        How can i log the actual content of the incoming messages?

         

        Thanks a lot for your help.
