nmrao- Here is an explanation for the photo for the project which I attached.
TestSuite1 > TestCase1 > Groovy script :
This pulls "default test data" from a "data store" and stores them inside the test case custom properties. This test data can now be used by other tests. We want to read the data store only once.
TestSuite2 > TestCase 1 and 2 :
In both of these test cases, the first test step is to get part of the test data (not all of it) stored in the custom properties of TestSuite1 > TestCase1. To do that, the first test step of each test case in TestSuite2 will call TestSuite1 > TestCase1. For the remaining test data, test cases 1 and 2 can use auto generated values or hard coded values depending on what is being tested. The problem with this approach is that TestSuite1 > TestCase1 is called once for each test case in TestSuite2 which we want to avoid.
Here is my requirement - I wanted to ensure that TestSuite1 > TestCase1 is called only once if you run the entire TestSuite2 *OR* if you run only one test in TestSuite2. To do that, I had earlier copied TestSuite1 > TestCase 1 into TestSuite2 and made it the 1st test case. It will run once before all the tests if you run the entire test suite. But, the problem is that it will not run if you run only one test in TestSuite2. That is why I call TestSuite1 > TestCase1 inside each test case of TestSuite2.
I hope this clarifies. Thanks.
2. can the logic of the script be executed conditionally? say, set a variable (custom property) once it is run. When it comes to second time, check the condition before executing the logic.
If the above does not help, is it possible to create sample soapui project which can help to reproduce the issue?
