SoapUI Maven Starting Test with specific tags

[Cekay]

Hello everyone,

I know this question is asked often but I can'f find an answer.

I would like to run TestSuites with special tags based on the enviroment. I know there are groovy scripts but I don't like those solutions.

https://support.smartbear.com/readyapi/docs/integrations/maven/config.html#config

tags	Specifies the tags of the test cases to be run. Use the following syntax: <param>TestCase tag1, tag2</param>

If i understand this correctly, I can specify my tag in my maven goals but do I have to specify this tag for each TestCase or is there a way to use a tag for all Suites?

like

<testSuite>${testSuite} Integration</testSuite>

All my attempts didn't work so far, so maybe someone can help me please?

My tags are called

- Integration

- Test

Cheers

Cekay

Part of my pom.xml if needed:

<configuration>
<!--<globalProperties> <value>preemptive=true</value> </globalProperties> -->
<projectFile>flexibill_project</projectFile>
<printReport>false</printReport>
<outputFolder>${project.build.directory}/soapui</outputFolder>
<junitReport>true</junitReport>
<exportAll>true</exportAll>
<environment>Integration</environment>
<readyApiProperties>
<property>
<name>soapui.logroot</name>
<value>${project.build.directory}/soapui-logs/</value>
</property>
</readyApiProperties>
<testSuite>${testSuite}</testSuite>
<testCase>${testCase}</testCase>
</configuration>

Oki I think I was able to find almost the answer. There is just one small problem left, whereI need help

As you can see below testSuite and testCase can be empty and everything will be executed.

If I try the same for the tags I get NPE in Maven.

So is there a way to keep this "<tags><param>${useTag}</param></tags>" empty?

My pom looks now like this:

<configuration>
<!--<globalProperties> <value>preemptive=true</value> </globalProperties> -->
<projectFile>flexibill_project</projectFile>
<printReport>false</printReport>
<outputFolder>${project.build.directory}/soapui</outputFolder>
<junitReport>true</junitReport>
<exportAll>true</exportAll>
<readyApiProperties>
<property>
<name>soapui.logroot</name>
<value>${project.build.directory}/soapui-logs/</value>
</property>
</readyApiProperties>
<environment>${env}</environment>
<testSuite>${testSuite}</testSuite>
<testCase>${testCase}</testCase>
<tags><param>${useTag}</param></tags>
</configuration>

Run 1 testsuite, run testCases tagged with "Test" on enviroment "Test"

mvn clean test -Denv="Test" -DtestSuite="NAME_testSuite" -DuseTag="TestCase Test"

Start all testSuites, run testCases tagged with "Test" on enviroment "Test"

mvn clean test -Denv="Test" -DuseTag="TestCase Test"

Start all testSuites, run all active testCases on enviroment "Integration"

mvn clean test -Denv="Integration"

Hi @Cekay,

Currently, the "tags" parameter value cannot be empty. But, I believe this situation be handled better, so please report this issue via a support ticket: https://support.smartbear.com/message/?prod=ReadyAPI

Thank you.

I use following workaround : all Testcases got the tag "Integration"

and I use following commands

• mvn clean test -Denv="Integration" -DuseTag="TestCase Integration"
• mvn clean test -Denv="Test" -DuseTag="TestCase Test"
