Most of the APIs are now secured by SSL/TLS. Development or test servers sometimes use self-signed certificates or certificates which do not match the server's DNS name.   When I try to connect to such server with SoapUI I get an error, which is fine, but I have no way to go on with the tests.   I woud appreciate having in SoapUI SSL preferences a new option "Do not check certificate", which I could switch on or off.   Some other HTTP tools have an option to ignore server's SSL certificate issues: wget:  --no-check-certificate option curl: -k or --insecure option   Best regards, Karel ...

As many of us aware that Software development to moving towards API development for the services using Swagger.   Open API Specification 3.0 was out quite some time ago and even service packs available.   However, there is lack of tooling(free) support for the same in the market such as Postman including SmartBear's SoapUI Open Source as well. Not sure about ReadyAPI though. Of course, swagger tools be used to hit the service, but can't be used for the automation.   Latest version of SoapUI OS supports only Swagger 2.0 and it has some limitations (refer here)   So, here the request to SmartBear team is to find when can OAS 3.0 be supported in SoapUI OS. ...

You may want to provide a corresponding hint in the check-box's text (or at least its hover-text), because that's not exactly intuitive. Without the reg-exp checkbox being ticket one needs to provide a substring only that has to be contained somewhere in the response. With the check box ticked, it needs to match the entire response.   Please make that difference more explicit!   Background here: Re: Contains assertion with option "Use Token as regular expression" not working ...

  It would be great to have facility to clone assertions to multiple TestCases in one go. Current support is to target only one test case in a test suite.   The same idea can be extended to choose multiple target TestSuites and in each Suite select all/specific TestCases to copy assertions to.   Thanks for considering. ...

The responsiveness of a system under test may vary widely depending on the environment.  Tests that worked in one run may fail in the next run if the system took longer than expected to respond, then pass again in another run.  Such variable responsiveness may be acceptable, depending on product requirements.   Idea: Enhance restrequest steps to support retries.  Let the test developer specify the max # attempts as well as the delay between attempts (e.g. millisecond). Enhance logging to record the #attempts required until test completion (e.g. test step completed after 3 attempts and 3984 milliseconds delay) or similar. Set default max #attempts=1, with default delay blank or some value that is grayed out when max #attempts=1.  Enable setting of the delay when the user sets max #attempts > 1.   Benefits: provide some resilience to functional tests so they continue to succed (from a functional perspective) even when system responsiveness varies provide logging information that lets other tools track the evolution of system responsiveness allows tests to simulate how real components in a loosely-coupled system would interact with each other (i.e. with retries) Other thoughts The "number of retries" can be confused with the "number of attempts", the latter being one more than the former.  So the name for such a capability would have to be chosen and documented carefully. Creating a separate step type would avoid modifying the existing restrequest type (less change to existing step). However the existing restrequest type could be enhanced in a backwards compatible way and avoids having to explain when to use the old restrequest step and when to use the new one (more transparent). ...

Let's say I make a call to a rest api and the response is json.   When the SOAPUI REST call has completed, it will still default to XML as the default response type (assumedly because SoapUI is very XML centric due to it's Soap connection).   You should spy the resulting content using response header or content.   Or maybe it is not working because my particular content-type is using charset=UTF-8.   Content-Type application/json;charset=UTF-8 ...

The load test feature in Soapui is great and simple.    Jmeter has one key feature - to be able to replay an access log from apache and turn it into a load test.    Can soapUI do that?  ... View more

If you need to add two or more WSDLs from your file system, every file you add starts the "browse" dialog from SoapUI's instalation folder.   It would help a lot if the last path is remebered, so no need to navigate to the directory every time.   Thanks again.   Best regards,     Federico. ...

Hi All,   Is there any assertion in Soapui Pro, that can be used to assert the response XML partially using regex pattern.   For Eg : Lets assume the response XML is something like this below:   <root> <a1>This is a1 test</a1> <a2>adding a2 text</a2> <a3> <b1>Some random text</b1> <c1>hello</c1> </a3> </root>   And i want to assert this xml partially using some regex. Lets say like this below:   Contains Assertion:  <root> <a1>This is a1 test</a1> *.* </a3> </root>   -----------------------------------   When i actually try to do this, it's not working. Can some suggest me the actual regex pattern that can be applied on the above XML to assert its response body. (Note : I am making use of 'contains' assertion)   Kindly let me know, if this feature exists (if yes, plz suggest regex for above & if NO, can we add this feature in next release of soapui pro).     Thanks Singh ...

It would be great if there were an option to change logging tabs from the bottom to the right side of the gui.   Sometimes I'm monitoring properties and steps in a test, and I'd like to see the script log specifically on the right. This way we have more control over the screen real estate.   Currently if you want to view both, you have to sacrifice space for script logs, or observing teststeps, or properties. ... View more
