Can ReadyAPI (SoapUI Pro) annotate the Project, Test Suite, Test Case, Step ?
I currently use SoapUI Pro in ReadyAPI 2.8.2 to run many tests against evolving API services. I would like to document changes to various parts of the tests but cannot seem to find a built in annotation function to record changes against the Project, the Test Suite, the Test Case, Steps, Assertions etc. I did not want to pollute the SQL, the Requests etc. with comments but was looking for a consistent annotation function. That allowed for broad explanation at the higher levels and more detailed explanations at the lower levels. At present I use long descriptive Step names, SQL comments, comments in the Requests etc., but this does have it's limitations and is not consistent. A notation feature added to all stages of the testing process would be very useful. Maybe with a date/time stamp. Maybe in the form of a chronological log. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to annotate tests? Thank you.Solved1KViews1like1CommentRe: Run two copies of ReadyAPI (SoapUI Pro) simultaneously
Thank you ChrisA Yes, I have tried this route and often this will damage one of the Workspaces. For me I think the corruption can be caused if I return to session 1 and rerun tests or change tests, it seems to confuse session 2 and vice-versa. This is why whenever I tried this I try to ensure I do not make any changes to session 1 and do not save changes to session 1. Somehow it still seems to cause corruption of the Workspace. Which usually requires a restore from the repository. Sometimes I get away with doing this, though as it has caused corruption a few times I simply do not do this anymore. Of course only running one session greatly reduces productivity as tests have to be run and rerun and notes taken to transfer from one to the other. Very time consuming. I have to say that I find the limitation of only being able to run one instance of ReadyAPI it's biggest and most counter productive flaw. I had hoped this severe limitation had been resolved with newer versions of the product. here's hoping...

Hello I am trying to run two copies of ReadyAPI (SoapUI Pro) simultaneously I am trying to run them side-by-side so that I can compare tests, requests and responses without having to perform a lengthy process of switching Workspaces and rerunning the tests again and again. Back in 2018 the advice was that it is not recommended, because the dashboard might get corrupted. (See: 'Running 2 ReadyAPI simultaneously') Indeed this can cause corruption of the Workspace if I try this. (ReadyAPI v2.8.2) For newer versions, has this advice changed? Have there been advances in ReadyAPI / SoapUI Pro that means we can now run two instances, on the same machine, using the same user account, using the same license, side-by-side ? Thank you.959Views0likes3Comments
