Controlling responses in a separate mock project

Hi,

Can you please elaborate on what you mean by controlling the behavior? The interaction you want to have between the projects is not quite clear.

Thank you,

One of the mock services is a dateSevice that will return the current systemdate. That service reads a property in the project containing the date.
From my tests I'd like to set that property so I can control what date the SUT reports back to us.

Hi,

You can use a script to set the property in your project. Please see this article:
http://www.soapui.org/Scripting-Properties/tips-a-tricks.html#1-1-get-and-set-properties
You can gain access to the value of the property by defining a variable that will hold it, using right-click-->Get Data... in your script to retrieve that value that you want to set as a custom property in your project. Then pass that value when you set the property.
See this article on how you can retrieve properties in your project using property expansion:

And this will work in the situation that I described? The value of the property in the mock project (executed by maven) should be set from another project (also executed by maven, but in another phase)

Hi,

If these two processes must be kept in separate projects, you will have to access Project M from Project T using a Groovy script.
There is not an out of the box functionality to set a property in another project.
This page shows a way that you could proceed:
