how to import a project from soapUI 2.5 to soapUI 3.0

Hi,

Could you please specify in some more details what problem do you have when trying to import the project?

Regards,
/Dragica

when I import the project it says :
"The model of REST requests has changed slightly,
introducing a new REST method item in-between each rest Resource and Request.
Any existing REST Request must now be placed under either an existing Method or a new one, either automatically or manually.

Would you like soapUI to do this automatically using the default values ?
  YES      NO "


So when I pressed the YES button it imported the project but all the REST Requests were damaged so the test cases were damaged and could not run them.
I tried with the NO button to try to create manually the missing Methods that are required, but unfortunatelly I get to a point that I cannot do anything - i just create a lot of methods and when i Press OK it reopens the same create window.

Hi,

Could you please download and try latest 3.0.1 nightly build from
http://www.eviware.com/nightly-builds/
and let us know if that helped you?

it's the same with the nightly build...
when I import the project automatically it puts all the Ressources almost randomly and are not okai and so neither are the Requests.
Even if I correct manually the ressources I cannot manage to run any request because the parameters are not in the order I put then in the ressource so the request is not right and cannot run it.
And also I cannot create a new step in a testcase -> NPE error.

Hi!

can you attach or mail the project to support@eviware.com so we can have a look?

regards!

Sry but I can't sent you the project because it's a big one.
But lets put aside the project. I tried to create a new project from the begining and still have
problems. So I will tell you the steps I made.
I installed a fresh copy of soapUI 3.0 from the link you gave me(after downloading it) .
Afterwards I opened the soapUI 3.0.
Then FILE/New soapUI Project
- a little windows opened where I entered the name of the project and then clicked OK
- the project was made. Then right click on the project and New REST Service
- another window opened where I entered the name of the REST service and the Service endpoint and clicked OK
- right click on the REST service I just made and select New Resource
                - another windows opened where i entered the name and the ressource and clicked OK.
                - another windows opened to create the REST method. Here i entered a name for the method and all the parameters of the REST request. Then clicked OK.
                - another windows opened to create the REST request.Here i didn't do a thing because all the parameters I entered in the previous window were here.
                - then I created 3 more REST methods(for this resource) to whoom the program attached the coresponding REST request with different names for eachone.
- then i created 2 more Resources and for each ressource four REST methods  with the corresponding REST requests, with different names.
--------
Then right click on the project and selected New TestSuite.After entering the name and clicked okai, it made the Test Suite.
Then right click on the test suite I just created and selected New TestCase. I entered a name and then clicked okai and the TestCase was made. So i have a testcase without any TestSteps. So right clikc on the TestSteps and add step and selected REST Test Request. Then I had to select the REST method to invoke for the request and i chose from the first Resource the first method.
Then i wanted to add another TestStep.So right click on the TestSteps and sleect add step and  REST Test Request. Then once again i had to select the the REST method to be invoked with the request i just made. I selected from the 2nd Ressource the 2nd method and then ERRRRROR...

So in conclusion to this. I cannot create two Rest Test Request with different Resources in the same TestCase.

-------------------------------------------------------

And then with the importing again.
In a new project I tried to import a TestSuite(this TestSuite had 4 TestCases and each TestCase had almost 70 Steps that pointed to different Resources) previous made in soapUI2.5 after creating the resources needed for it. The import was Okai. But i had to select for each step the corresponding Resource. So i did that. Then i runed the Test Suite. Everything was perfect. So i saved the project. Exit the soapUI and very happy that this was working went outside to smoke. When i came back and opened the soapUI the TestSuite i imported was there the resources i created were there. BUT  soapUI associated for all the REST Test Steps the first Resource In the list and with the first method. So it was just like I've done a fresh import for that TestSuite.



In conclusion soapUI didn't "remember" the Resources that were assigned for each Rest Test Request.



Please tell me if i did something wrong or how to do this the right way!


THANKS

I forgot to tell you the configuration of my PC.
I have Intel Pentium 4 3GHz with 2gb ddr1
and Windows XP Professional.

so nobody can help me ?

Hello,

I am not able to reproduce this error, could you please post your system properties (soapUI top menu bar: Help > System Properties) and also the build number (Help > About soapUI).
