NullPointerException at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.teststeps.RestTestRequestStep

 

I am stuck with below error . I am calling a groovy test step from assertion of a Test Step and this groovy test step is calling another test case . it is running but below exception is coming .

 

Just sample code .

 

Test Step 1 - >  In assertion calling another test step based on some conditions

     context.testCase.getTestStepByName("VerifyAddress").run(context.testRunner,context)

 

Test step 2 (VerifyAddress)

      //calling another step based on few conditions

     def key = context.testCase.testSuite.project.testSuites['Keywords_Addresses'].testCases['ApproveAdress']

     key.setPropertyValue("city",city)

     def runner = key.run( null, true )
     runner.waitUntilFinished()

If I were into your shoes, I would use the script assertion itself (my understanding is that call a groovy script from script assertion) and not call another groovy script. And also avoid having dependency on another test case.

Please check if it is possible to re-design the test to be independent.

Is it possible to crate sample project to reproduce the issue?

@kannan : I agree with @nmrao , the approach which you are using doesn't looks good as :

 

1. All the test steps should be independent and

2. Calling a test step from a script assertion is not a good decision.

 

You should move the logic of calling another test step to a separate groovy script


Let me know in case more help is needed, would be happy to help 🙂

Yea ! I have already moved it to a different test step but I just wanted to
understand why it is throwing this error .

Not possible to comment without the code written in script assertion and groovy script test step.
