Custom Property

ReadyAPI - How to use code in the custom properties of a test step ?
Say we have a test step which actually calls/runs some test case. One of the properties, say ID has a variable value which is set by something else (script, another test step etc.). E.g. like this: ID :${TestCase-GetId#ID}. Can I use code inside the value box/field to alter the value of ID? This will be useful for ad hoc testing or could be used normally in the test. E.g. ID : ${TestCase-GetId#ID}.subString(0, 5). I don't want to create another groovy script for minor changes to property values. I know that we can prepend or append constants to the value easily like this - ID : MyId_${TestCase-GetId#ID}. But, I don't know if we can use code there instead. If we can use code, then are there any limitations (e.g. the code should be 100 characters or less) ? Keywords - script in custom properties editor, code in custom properties editor, alter the value of a custom property, code in the value of a custom property, script in the value of a custom property, code in the custom properties of a test step.

Update Custom Property references in "Run Test Case" values, if Custom Property is renamed
It would be great, if ReadyAPI/SoapUI NG would update usages of custom properties in case of renaming the custom property, even if there are used in the value part of the property definiton of "Run Test Case" test steps. 1. Create TestSuite Repro - Custom Property MyRepro 2. Create TestCase Foo - Custom Property MyFoo 3. Create TestCase Bar 3a. Create TestStep "Run TestCase Foo" in TestCase "Bar" 3b. Assign to "MyFoo" the value value ${#TestSuite#MyRepro} 4. Rename the Custom Property "MyRepro" to "MyNewRepro" 5. Check the value in TestStep "Run TestCase Foo" -> Value is still "${#TestSuite#MyRepro}" and not "${#TestSuite#MyNewRepro}" If the custom property is used in a "Soap Request" test step, the usage is updated. So it would be a great help, if same happens in case of usages in "Run TestCase" test steps. With regards
