Question

My question is about putting data elements (from groovy script) in the response in SoapUI.
I’ve an array of data that I would like to put in my response (in different tags/elements)

---

I’m aware of putting a simple element like this:

The element “MyName” in the Xml response:

<ns:MyName>${MyName}</ns:MyName>

Is mapped from the Groovy script by

context.setProperty("MyName" , "My name" )

---

Now the problem:

my Xml response looks like this:

   <soapenv:Body>
  <ns:GetDataSummaryResponse>
     <!--Optional:-->
     <ns:GetDataSummaryResult>
        <ns:DataSummary>
           <!--Zero or more repetitions:-->
           <ns:DataSummaryResponseDetail>
              <ns:Name>?</ns:Name>
              <!--Optional:-->
              <ns:DataProgress>
                 <!--Optional:-->
                 <From>?</From>
                 <!--Optional:-->
                 <Procent>?</Procent>
                 <!--Optional:-->
                 <To>?</To>
                 <!--Optional:-->

In Groovy I’ve built data array which is filled with data for example like this:

context:[DataSummary:[DataSummaryResponseDetail:[Name:My  name, DataProgress:[From:some text, **Procent:some value**, To:some text]]]

In the response I’m able to see the whole value of ${DataSummary} but how do I get the element “Procent”

I maybe am wrong about how to build my context data, but feel free to adjust!

Answer 1

I managed to do this with a lot of searching.
First of all, I needed to use “=” in front of the element to be able to get a handle like
${=DataSummary[0]}
This works on the top level of my data shown before.

But to really solve the problem I created a Class in Groovy like this:

Code: Select all
Class DataSummaryResponseDetail {
public String name
public DataProgress DataProgress = new DataProgress()
public Value[] value = new Value[2]
}
class DataProgress {
public Date From
public Date To
public float Procent
}
class Value {
public String Currency
public int Amount
}

def hsrd = new DataSummaryResponseDetail()
hsrd.name = 'Some name'
hsrd.value[0]=new Value()
hsrd.value[0].Amount = 1000
hsrd.value[0].Currency = 'SEK'
hsrd.totalValue.Amount = 2000
hsrd.totalValue.Currency = 'USD' 

and then in the response xml. I refer to elements like this
${hsrd.value[0].Amount}
${=hsrd.totalValue.Amount}

def hsrd = new DataSummaryResponseDetail()
hsrd.name = ‘Some name’
hsrd.value[0]=new Value()
hsrd.value[0].Amount = 1000
hsrd.value[0].Currency = ‘SEK’
hsrd.totalValue.Amount = 2000
hsrd.totalValue.Currency = ‘USD’

Problem solved. If you know of a better way, please let me know.
