Hi Dwaraka,

I am not Ole. If you meant to ask question to Ole, you can try posting this question on soapui forum. Ole is pretty good at replying back in a reasonable time frame. But since you asked the question you can control the flow using testRunner.gotoStepByName ( I have described it in point #7 in my post http://onebyteatatime.wordpress.com/2009/04/18/soapui-tips-n-tricks-part-2/). There is one more way to do it but that is available as of soapui pro 2.5 or up and I think that allows you to directly jump to a given testcase. I am sure the soapui user guide on their website talks about that too. Please go through my description in #7 of my post and their guide and you should find what you are looking for.

hope that helps,
~srs

Hi,

Thank you for your rich information

I have a question please, How can I use a property as a function of another property? For example: If I have 2 properties t1 and t2, t1=current time, How to set t2=t2-t1?
and how to get the current time, please?

Another example:

2
24

I want the crsNum to be random between 1 and 4, I did that using property expansion: ${=(int)(Math.random()*10)}
Q: I want StudentAge to be function of crsNum, how to do it in soapUI Pro?
Ex: if crsNum=1, then StudentAge= 10 to 20
if crsNum=2, then StudentAge= 20 to 30
and so on

thank you in advance ..

Regarding Datasource option, can you explain the last 2 options: ‘Entitize’, and ‘Expand’ ? The userguide doesn’t elaborate. Can you give example? Thanks.

check the trace in your soapui error log. one of xsd files might be missing.

Thanks for another great post!

Regarding tip nr 7, soapUI 2.5 introduced a “runTestStepByName” method which will do what most users expected the gotoTestStepByName method to do in the first place; it will run the specified teststep immediately and also add its results to the log and call the relevant listeners.

Keep up the great work!
