How to add XML node dynamically with a namespace
I have an optional xml node which I need to add as I am doing data driven testing. I want to add it based on the input and it has a namespace as well. I was able to add the node dynamically, but namespace is not getting added. Please help me in adding the namespace to that.
def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils( context )
holder = groovyUtils.getXmlHolder( "SOAP Request#Request"
def parentnode = holder.getDomNode("//v1:GetNames")
XmlUtils.addChildElement(parentnode, "v1:firstname", "abc")
holder.updateProperty()
Even though I'm adding "v1:firstname", request xml shows only "firstname" and namespace is not added.
Found the answer. I had to use the 'appendChild' instead of 'addChildElement'.
def parentnode = holder.getDomNode("//v1:GetNames")
def xmldoc = parentnode.ownerDocument
def ns = "your namespace address goes here"def child = parentnode.appendChild(xmldoc.createElementNS(ns, "Name"))
child.appendChild(xmldoc.createTextNode("abc"))
