How to prevent ReadyAPI from randomly changing how it stores empty XML elements?
Why does ReadyAPI change how it stores a blank XML tag from, say <con:properties/> to <con:properties></con:properties> If I make one change and save, I may see many of these differences, which complicates review of the code. I see this in projects where Composite project is false, and in projects where it is true. The representation of blank XML elements is one of many things about how ReadyAPI stores a project that seem to change at random with each new version or sometimes randomly within the same version. I have tried setting the flag "Pretty prints project files", but this is not sufficient to stop this noise. Is there some other flag I can set so that the method for encoding the project doesn't obscure actual logic changes when I look at the differences? Preferably something that gets remembered in the project, rather than depending on a user setting? References: The following are a few postings that seem relevant, but don't clean up the random XML representations.

Ideally I would like to see this as a project setting."Solved1.7KViews0likes7CommentsConvert XML to Json format - jScript
Hey guys, I curretly have an XML file that I use to map some test data so I could create another XML file and send it somwhere. Current XML format is: <Mappings> <Test id="Test_1000_test"> <TestIdMapping>Test_1001_test1</TestIdMapping> <TestIdMapping>Test_1002_test2</TestIdMapping> </Test> <Test id="Test_2000_test"> <TestIdMapping>Test_2001_test1</TestIdMapping> <TestIdMapping>Test_2002_test2</TestIdMapping> <TestIdMapping>Test_2003_test3</TestIdMapping> </Test> <Mappings> Basically I am mapping 1001, 1002 to 1000....... I would like to switch this file to JSON and have it in TestComplete instead of reading it from the outside (external XML). What's is the best way to it ? I have an idea in head but I would like your opinion. Please note that file could have up to few hundreds tests.1.9KViews0likes11CommentsHow to represent a mixed xml node
I'm trying to represent a mixed xml node in JSON schema. The mixed node has multiple attributes and text() contents Example: <desc language="en-US">Description text</desc> I got to here: "application/xml": { "schema": { "type": "object", "properties": { "language": { "type": "string", "xml": {"attribute": true} }, "#text": { "type": "string" } }, "xml": {"name": "desc"} } } But the Swagger UI (v3.38.0) generates: <desc language="string"><#text>string</#text></desc> Is this a bug in the framework and should #text just always be rendered as text(), is there some kind of syntax missing that allows me to be specific about what #text actually is, is there a different way to do this other than #text?SolvedInvalid timeout formats for SOAP Request

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!

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.
