Configure ReadyAPI new environment using Groovy

[UhsBat]

We are executing ReadyAPI soap testcases in many environments, and now we need to create automation suite for different functionality in all those environments. Problem is to define all environments and lots of endpoints every time we create new projects.

Is there any way to configure new environments using Groovy scripts so that I can use 'Scripts library' feature to load all the environments  when ever I create a new project in ReadyAPI.

@UhsBat :

You can try below commands to get the Active Environment name and and set new environment by name:

//To get the active Environment:
def env = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getActiveEnvironment().getName() 
log.info("Active Environment: " + env)
//To change the active Environment:
def env =  testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getEnvironmentByName("<ENV NAME>");
testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.setActiveEnvironment(env)

Hope it will help you 🙂

Thanks for the reply. 

Using setActiveEnvironment I can only set the existing environment. But I want to create a new environment in ReadyAPI using groovy scripts.

Ex:

suppose I have two envs DEV1 and SIT1, now I want to clone DEV1 and rename it as UAT1 or create a new env UAT1.

There are different ways of doing it.

Here another way to accomplish the same (without even using the environment feature)
