    Thanks "nmrao".

    Can you also provide me the groovy statement to be used to set the file path inside the datasource test step?

    You saw how to get a value of property, opposite of it to set. Use setPropertyValue(key, value)

      Rao, thanks for your explanation! Nevertheless, I did not figure out a way to put the file in the datasource-File. Can you pls support?

       

      Thanks in advance,

        Try this - 

         

        def dataSourceStep = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName("DataSource");

        dataSourceStep.getDataSource().setFileName("FilePath");

         

        Cheers,

    You may add a property at test case level for the same(say FILE_NAME) and access its value in groovy script of the test case.

    def fileName = testRunner.testCase.getPropertyValue('FILE_NAME')


    In case if it requires multiple files, define property(FILE_NAMES) value as comma separated(/path/to/file1,/path/to/file2) then split it using comma in the groovy script so that you get an arry and then loop thru it.

    def fileNames = testRunner.testCase.getPropertyValue('FILE_NAMES')
    def fileNamesArray = fileNames.split(',')
    fileNamesArray.each { fileName ->
    //do the stuff
    }
