I don't want the Optional elements in XML message to be automatically added by ReadyAPI
Good afternoon, I am using ReadyAPI 3.1.0 There was a big difference between my XML message yesterday and the message today. It looks as if ReadyAPI has automatically added all kind of optional elements in the message without me knowing about it. This is very disturbing! Example of message as defined yesterday: Example of the same message as it looks today:GroovyUtils XMLHolder throwing Xpath syntax error when XML node value contains escaped character.
GroovyUtils throwing error when XML node value contains escaped characters. In my script, I'm accessing a node that contains the description of an error. That node when read by my XMLHolder throws this error: Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: net.sf.saxon.trans.XPathException: XPath syntax error at char 9 on line 2 in {\nInvalid part number}: Unexpected token name "part" beyond end of expression It appears that the node I'm reading contains the value "\n", and when the holder tries to read it, it throws the error. How can I read the node, with the escaped value, and not bomb out?Excel datasink to consume repeating xml elements without having to map multiple properties
Currently there's no functionality that provides the abiltiy to map an XML rest response with repeating elements to a datasink without mapping each indivitual repeating element. Example:https://community.smartbear.com/t5/SoapUI-Pro/How-to-map-repeating-elements-from-xml-response-to-datasink/m-p/199559#M45747 Is there a way to map a repeating element from a response into a datasink automatically, rather than having to click getData and manually clicking each one. So, if I have 25 repeating elements. Widgets again. They all have the same attributes. A1, A2, A3. I want my sink to collect each of the attributes from each of the widgets, but I don't want to have to map it explicitly in the data sink property and the every one of the 25 widgets (x3 attributes) in my response. example: <widgets> <widget> <att1>abc</att1> <att2>xyz</att2> <att3>asd</att3> </widget> <widget> <att1>abc</att1> <att2>xyz</att2> <att3>asd</att3> </widget> ... </widgets> In my datasink, I'd like to map these out 1 element to 1 row in excel: excel row 1 (first widget): att1: abc,att2: xyz,att1: asd excel row 2 (second widget): att2: abc,att2: xyz,att1: asd What I'm trying to avoid is this: All the way through dozens of these objects.
Loop over an XML database i.e. a SOAP response
Hi Guys, I can't seem to get around how to loop over the values inside a SOAP request. I figure that I need an XML datasource. That's fine, but I really can't get it to work. I'm using XPath to query the XML, but I'm not even able to get a single value out of the SOAP response. I'm most likely just using the too incorrectly. Anyone that got this working?
rest service xml payload disappears from editor
I have a test case where in my tests I compare the response from an old service to the response from a new service. The endpoints to the two services are different. I'm supplying the request payload for the old service as XML and the payload for the new service is JSON. When I run the tests that I have set up, they are both successful. Each one calls the appropriate service and returns a valid response. The problem I'm having is that when I close the editor for the old service, the XML is not retained. The result is, every time I want to run the test I have to paste the XML into the request tab of the editor. Also, if I click form tab the XML values are deleted and I have to paste it again. If I click the outline or raw tab, the XML is retained. That is not happening on the tests for the new service. The JSON that I paste into the request tab is there when I reopen the editor. When I click the tabs (form, outline, raw) the JSON is retained. My workaround is that I open the tests for the old service and paste the XML into the editor for each test (there are four), then run the four tests. Then I run the tests for the new service. As long as I keep the tests for the old service open in the editor, the data is "cached", so the comparisons can be done. I have clicked around to see if there is a setting I can change to get the XML to stay in place, but I have not found anything. Granted, I am new to using ReadyAPI, so I'm not sure if I'm looking in the right place. I have searched to see if this is a known issue, and I cannot find this scenario described by anyone else. Can someone point me to a solution?
