    If I were into your shoes, I would use the script assertion itself (my understanding is that call a groovy script from script assertion) and not call another groovy script. And also avoid having dependency on another test case.

    Please check if it is possible to re-design the test to be independent.

    Is it possible to crate sample project to reproduce the issue?

kannan : I agree with nmrao , the approach which you are using doesn't looks good as :

 

1. All the test steps should be independent and

2. Calling a test step from a script assertion is not a good decision.

 

You should move the logic of calling another test step to a separate groovy script


Let me know in case more help is needed, would be happy to help ðŸ™‚

    Yea ! I have already moved it to a different test step but I just wanted to
    understand why it is throwing this error .

      Not possible to comment without the code written in script assertion and groovy script test step.
