How to generate a random number in a particular range

[Daniel-yip]

I want to generate a random number in a particular range, but how can write groovy script for this purpose?

Can I use Random class in java.util sunch as Math.random()? If I can, How to do? Thanks

Hi!

sure.. try

context.randomValue = 5 + 5*Math.random()

to generate a value between 5 and 10!?

and then us it in a request with

${randomValue}

Thanks....

I copy the following script and the copy to groovy script for testing. A Lot of error was display.

context.randomValue = 5 + 5*Math.random()
def props = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName("Properties");
props.setPropertyValue("randomValue", ${randomValue});

How can I generate the the random value and transfer to property?

Hi!

either use property-expansion as I showes in my initial response, or write the value to a property with

def randomValue = 5 + 5*Math.random()
def props = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName("Properties");
props.setPropertyValue("randomValue", randomValue );

and then use a property-transfer to transfer it to some target..

Hope this helps!

The following error was displayed when execute your suggest code. What should I do?

groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.teststeps.WsdlPropertiesTestStep.setPropertyValue() is applicable for argument types: (java.lang.String, java.lang.Double) values: {"randomValue", 5.3027697549785975}

Hi!

try

...
props.setPropertyValue("randomValue", String.valueOf(randomValue) )

instead.
