Get test step property dynamically, without using the teststep name
Hi, I have a test step called TestStepName with a property land, which is used in the request's json. I have used the Get Data functionality to point out the property. This works fine. I have to multiply this request a lot of times, one request for each country. That's why I have the country code in the land property, so it would be easy to change it. Now the problem: When I clone the test step, the new test step's name is TestStepName2. But in the json part the reference is still "${TestStepName#land}", so it takes the property value from the original test step. How can I write this in an other way so that the property from the actual test step is used? I don't want to update all references manually, there must be a way to make the property reference dynamic. I have tried to replace TestStepName with testRunner.runContext.currentStep.name but that doesn't work. I have googled for hours but can't find a solution, so I hope someone here has a smart way to solve this.

Hi, I test a REST-service that respond with a json. My request: GET https://develop-sys.test.abc.se/mom/19820224/201907 The json response looks fine, both i tab "JSON" and tab "Raw": { "period" : "201907", "error" : false } Since I use ReadyApi I can select to show the response in xml format in the "XML" tab. The data that was in the json is correct also in the xml view. But I get a different path in the xmlns-element than the one I sent the request to. A colleague even got another environment in the path. <Response xmlns="https://develop-sys.test.abc.se/mom/19710518/202101"> <period>201907</period> <error>false</error> </Response> Where does ReadyApi get the value for the xmlns element? I recognize the values because I have tested with those values also but not in my latest test. Has anyone else seen this behavior when showing a json response as xml?

Hi Todd, My problem was not to process the json, I have used the JsonSlurper before, but how to get the contents of the request. I googled for several hours with no luck... I will try to be more clear next time I ask a question. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction, your suggested search made me find the scripting samples that I had missed 🙂 https://support.smartbear.com/readyapi/docs/testing/scripts/samples/index.html Kind regards Camilla7.7KViews0likes0CommentsRe: How to get request body using a groovy script in ReadyAPI
Hi Rao, Thank you very much! The context variable was new to me. I have previously used messageExchange.response.responseContent to get the response and could not find the corresponding way to access the request. But now I will use context for both request and response 😊 Also thank you for the other code, I had no idea that json.drafts.period would generate an array of the periods in the response, very useful. (as you understand I'm not a developer 🙂) Kind regards Camilla7.7KViews1like2CommentsHow to get request body using a groovy script in ReadyAPI
Hi, The request (getDrafts) I'm testing takes a list of periods and reply with a list of data for those periods. Request body: { "periods" : ["202101","202102"] } Response body: { "drafts" : [ { "period" : "202101", "data" : { "name" : "Kalle Kula", "epost" : "kalle@kula.se" } }, { "period" : "202102", "data" : { "name" : "Krille Krokodil", "phone" : "9876543210" } } ] } I would like to create a script that reads the requested periods from the request body, and for each value verifies that there is an item for that period in the response body. I also want to verify the content of the data-part for each item but first things first 🙂 The problem is I cannot figure out how to get the contents of the request body from my groovy script. Kind regards, CamillaRSolved8.9KViews0likes6CommentsRe: How can I use a property in the header for a request in ReadyAPI
Hi nmrao, You were on to something here. The problem was in my token. 1. I run a curl command in bash to generate the token and save the result to a textfile. This is done by adding " > c:/mytokenfile.txt" after the curl command 2. In SoapUI/ReadyAPI, my groovy script reads the textfile and stores the contents in the project property. The problem was this: When storing the token value into a textfile cr+lf is added at the end. And this was also read into the property. When viewing property value the cr+lf looks like a blank space in the end (in the property window). I have now fixed my groovyscript so it does not store the cr+lf in the property. Thanks for the help, /Camilla2.1KViews1like2CommentsHow can I use a property in the header for a request in ReadyAPI
Hi, I have a SoapUI project where I use a project property "token" that is used in the header of the requests, I reference it as ${#Project#token}, see attachment for more details. I do this since I have many requests and the token needs to be renewed every hour. I load the token value into the property using a groovy script test step. This works fine when I run my requests using SoapUI 5.6.0. Now I have installed ReadyAPI 3.1.0 and imported my SoapUI project. When I run my requests in ReadyAPI I get error 503 Service Unavailable. It works OK if I use the real value in the header, e.g "Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV...." but not when I use ${#Project#token} in the header. Why does it work in SoapUI but not in ReadyAPI? And how can I use the project property in the header? Kind Regards, CamillaSolved2.2KViews0likes6Comments
