Getting 500 when running a test step from Java
I have a test suite with one test case which has three test steps. I can run the first test step from SoapUI just fine, but when I load the project from a Java class, I see debug messages with an HTTP 500 and a strange connection IP. Then there's an IOException. Here's my code: WsdlProject project = new WsdlProject("Resources/SOAPService-soapui-project.xml"); WsdlTestCase testCase = project.getTestSuiteByName("TestSuite 1").getTestCaseByName("TestCase 1"); WsdlTestStep driver = testCase.getTestStepByName("Driver"); StringToObjectMap properties = new StringToObjectMap(); properties.put("requestBody", null); properties.put("expectedVendorCode", null); properties.put("expectedInternalCode", null); properties.put("currentTime", null); WsdlTestCaseRunner runner = new WsdlTestCaseRunner(testCase, properties); runner.runTestStep(driver); Here's the log and stack trace: [HttpClientSupport$SoapUIHttpClient] Attempt 1 to execute request [SoapUIMultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager$SoapUIDefaultClientConnection] Sending request: POST /web_services/services/specific_service HTTP/1.1 [SoapUIMultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager$SoapUIDefaultClientConnection] Receiving response: HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error [SoapUIMultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager$SoapUIDefaultClientConnection] Connection 0.0.0.0:65124<->216.58.218.206:80 shut down [SoapUIMultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager$SoapUIDefaultClientConnection] Connection 0.0.0.0:65124<->216.58.218.206:80 closed java.io.IOException: Decompression of response failed at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.transports.http.HttpMethodSupport.getResponseBody(HttpMethodSupport.java:321) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.transports.http.support.methods.ExtendedPostMethod.getResponseBody(ExtendedPostMethod.java:133) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.transports.http.BaseHttpResponse.<init>(BaseHttpResponse.java:92) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.transports.http.SinglePartHttpResponse.<init>(SinglePartHttpResponse.java:46) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.transports.http.support.attachments.WsdlSinglePartHttpResponse.<init>(WsdlSinglePartHttpResponse.java:40) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.filters.HttpPackagingResponseFilter.wsdlRequest(HttpPackagingResponseFilter.java:75) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.filters.HttpPackagingResponseFilter.afterAbstractHttpResponse(HttpPackagingResponseFilter.java:52) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.filters.AbstractRequestFilter.afterRequest(AbstractRequestFilter.java:68) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.submit.transports.http.HttpClientRequestTransport.sendRequest(HttpClientRequestTransport.java:295) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.WsdlSubmit.run(WsdlSubmit.java:127) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.WsdlSubmit.submitRequest(WsdlSubmit.java:80) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.WsdlRequest.submit(WsdlRequest.java:242) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.teststeps.WsdlTestRequestStep.run(WsdlTestRequestStep.java:419) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.support.AbstractTestCaseRunner.runTestStep(AbstractTestCaseRunner.java:239) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.support.AbstractTestCaseRunner.runTestStepByName(AbstractTestCaseRunner.java:224) at com.eviware.soapui.model.testsuite.TestCaseRunner$runTestStepByName.call(Unknown Source) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.CallSiteArray.defaultCall(CallSiteArray.java:45) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.call(AbstractCallSite.java:108) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.call(AbstractCallSite.java:116) at Script1.run(Script1.groovy:11) at com.eviware.soapui.support.scripting.groovy.SoapUIGroovyScriptEngine.run(SoapUIGroovyScriptEngine.java:100) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.teststeps.WsdlGroovyScriptTestStep.run(WsdlGroovyScriptTestStep.java:154) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.support.AbstractTestCaseRunner.runTestStep(AbstractTestCaseRunner.java:239) at com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.support.AbstractTestCaseRunner.runTestStep(AbstractTestCaseRunner.java:229) at futzing.SoapUIRunner.main(SoapUIRunner.java:32) What am I missing in the setup?
