Possible Bug: Excel DataSource - Evaluate formulas

Hello,

 

 

I have a formula in my spreadsheet:

 

=RANDBETWEEN(0, 9999999999)

 

In Excel this functions as expected, however when I use this in a SoapUI Excel Datasource with 'Evaluate formulas' checked. It often returns 2147483647 (signed int32 max)

 

Example DataSet:

-2147483647 

-2147483647 

-416343719

-2147483647 

-118279355

 

 

 

Experimenting further I've tried:

=RANDBETWEEN(2147483647, 9999999999)

which often returns 4294967294 (unsigned int32 max)

Example DataSet:

- 3101863848

- 3272373208

- 4294967294 

- 4294967294 

- 4294967294 

 

 

I've also noticed that it doesn't like named ranges. I get an error that the named range doesn't exist even though it works fine in Excel.

 

This doesn't seem like intended behavior. I expect SoapUI to evaluate excel functions the same way that Excel does. 

 

Can anyone confirm that this is an issue?
