SoapUITestCaseRunner

The runner is defined in the com.eviware.soapui.tools.SoapUITestCaseRunner class and takes the path to the soapUI project file containing the tests and a number of options:

switchdescription
eThe endpoint to use when invoking test-requests, overrides the endpoint set in the project file
hThe host:port to use when invoking test-requests, overrides only the host part of the endpoint set in the project file
sThe TestSuite to run, used to narrow down the tests to run
cThe TestCase to run, used to narrow down the tests to run
uThe username to use in any authentications, overrides any username set for any TestRequests
pThe password to use in any authentications, overrides any password set for any TestRequests
wSets the WSS password type, either 'Text' or 'Digest'
dThe domain to use in any authentications, overrides any domain set for any TestRequests
rTurns on printing of a small summary report (see below)
fSpecifies the root folder to which test results should be exported (see below)
jTurns on exporting of JUnit-compatible reports, see below
aTurns on exporting of all test results, not only errors
oOpens the generated report in a browser (soapUI Pro only)
iEnables soapUI UI-related components.

The distribution contains a testrunner.bat script for running tests in the bin directory, for example;

testrunner.bat -hlocalhost:8080 -a -fresults c:\projects\my-soapui-project.xml 

will run all the tests defined in the my-soapui-project.xml file against the specified host and export all test results to the "results" folder (will be created if not available).

Launch Dialog

For getting started with the command-line testrunner, soapUI includes a "Launch LoadTestRunner" action available from Project/TestSuite/TestCase popup menus:

The options available include those described above and also add options to set if the project should be saved, the path to the runner (leave empty for same as installation), etc. When launching the specified testrunner will be launched from the command-line as configured and the output can be followed:

The output contains the actual command-line command used for launching the runner, which can easily be copy/pasted for external reuse

JUnit Integration

It is fairly easy to invoke the testrunner from your own JUnit-tests;

public void testRunner() throws Exception
{
	SoapUITestCaseRunner runner = new SoapUITestCaseRunner();
	runner.setProjectFile( "src/dist/sample-soapui-project.xml" );
	runner.run();
}

The runner.run() call will throw an exception if an error occurs. If you want more control over your integration / error-reporting, a specific TestCase could be run as follows:

public void testTestCaseRunner() throws Exception
{
	WsdlProject project = new WsdlProject( "src/dist/sample-soapui-project.xml" );
	TestSuite testSuite = project.getTestSuiteByName( "Test Suite" );
	TestCase testCase = testSuite.getTestCaseByName( "Test Conversions" );
	
	// create empty properties and run synchronously
	TestRunner runner = testCase.run( new PropertiesMap(), false );
	assertEquals( Status.FINISHED, runner.getStatus() );
}

Reporting and Exporting

The SoapUITestCaseRunner has basic reporting functionalities, including the possibility to create JUnit-compatible xml-reports using the -j switch. Also, it will during execution print diagnostic information and if the -r switch was specified print a small summary:

testrunner.bat jbossws-soapui-project.xml -stest -ctesting -r -a -fmyresults

produced the following output:

SoapUI 1.5beta2 TestCaseRunner Summary
-----------------------------
Time Taken: 1895ms
Total TestSuites: 1
Total TestCases: 1
Total TestSteps: 4
Total Request Assertions: 1
Total Failed Assertions: 0
Total Exported Results: 4

By default, the testrunner exports only failed results to a text file, the -a option will export all results instead. For example the file for a Request TestStep will be as follows (slightly modified to fit):

Status: OK
Time Taken: 55
Size: 448
Timestamp: Sun Mar 12 12:45:57 CET 2006
TestStep: request step
----------------------------------------------------

   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

Exported files are written to a file named <TestSuite>-<TestCase>-<TestStep Name>-<Count>-<Status>.txt in the current or specified folder. An example filename is "TestSuite 1-TestCase 1-Request Step 1-0-OK.txt" (the count is added since a TestStep can be invoked several times within the run of a TestCase). As of soapUI 1.7.5, response attachments are also exported, named <TestSuite>-<TestCase>-<TestStep Name>-<Count>-attachment-<AttachmentCount>.<Extension>, where the extension is created from the attachments content-type if possible (otherwise .dat will be used).

JUnit Reports

Adding the -j switch produces xml-reports in the same format that are exported by the JUnit ant task with the xml-report format. Currently, soapUI maps TestSuites to report-packages and TestCases to report TestCases. For example running the following:

testrunner.bat -j -ftestresults sample-soapui-project.xml

produces a "TEST-Test Suite.xml" file in the specified test results folder. This result can be further transformed using the ant junitreport task:

<junitreport todir="./testresults">
   <fileset dir="./testresults">
      <include name="TEST-*.xml"/>
   </fileset>
   <report format="frames" todir="./testresults/html"/>
 </junitreport>

Which produces an output as follows:

Errors are shown as follows:

Wrapping everything into one ant-target for win32 would be as follows:

<target name="soapui-report">

	<exec dir="C:\\Program Files\\eviware\\soapUI-1.7.5\\bin" executable="cmd.exe">
		<arg line="/c testrunner.bat -j -fg:\\reports g:\\projects\\sample-soapui-project.xml"/>
	</exec>
	
	<junitreport todir="g:\\reports">
	  <fileset dir="g:\\reports">
	    <include name="TEST-*.xml"/>
	  </fileset>
	  <report format="frames" todir="g:\\reports\\html"/>
	</junitreport>

</target>
