Contains assertion fails with ampersand (&)

Actually I just noticed that the CDATA wrappers are being stripped out from the Raw response.

Raw:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=iso-8859-1
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Server: Jetty(6.1.x)

<resultset>
  <row rowid='1'>
    <column name='storenum'><![CDATA[STORE1]]></column>
    <column name='dob'><![CDATA[01/01/1950]]></column>
    <column name='pmisc1'><![CDATA[]]></column>

XML tab (and responseAsXml):

<resultset>
   <row rowid="1">
      <column name="storenum">STORE1</column>
      <column name="dob">01/01/1950</column>
      <column name="pmisc1"/>

Is there any way to retain the CDATA wrappers?

Hi!

hm... what if you turn off pretty-printing for the request.. does that help?

Yes, now I am getting the CDATA elements. However, my xpath assertions are now failing with

[tt:3n3klg70]XmlException:error: Unexpected element: OPEN_TAG[/tt:3n3klg70]

It was my understanding that xpath would ignore the CDATA wrapper. For example, in XMLSpy this xml:

<resultset>
  <row rowid='1'>
    <column name='storenum'><![CDATA[STORE1]]></column>
  </row>
</resultset>

with the following xpath expression:

/resultset/row/column/text()

returns STORE1. But with the same expression in soapUI I get the exception.

Hi!

hmm.. can you show the entire exception?

Hi!

hmm.. .can you show the raw response message? Either screenshot of raw message tab or http log output should be enough..

thanks in advance!

Text of raw result sent via email with the link to this topic as subject.

Screenshot attached.

ok thanks!

Also I'm going to need the exact content of the contains-assertions.. can you show or mail it?

sorry for all this..

Here is one of the XPath assertions:

if (//resultset[1]/row[1]/column[@name="trk_group"]/text())
then //resultset[1]/row[1]/column[@name="trk_group"]/text()
else ''

Hi!

ok.. but the error seems to occur in a SimpleContains assertion.. do you have any of those in the teststep? What is its configuration ?

regards!
