Now my next issue is integrating in an existing SoapUI project file into an existing maven project in Eclipse.

Let me know if this other post is a reasonable approach.

Please note that after I add the SoapUI behavior and get the SoapUI Web Services file in my Eclipse project, the soapUI popup menu does not do anything when I click on the 'add wsdl' 'new testsuite' etc from the soapUI popup. 

I am running Eclipse Version: 3.3.1.1

I have a SoapUI project that I would like to import into my Eclipse Maven project. 

I can import this SoapUI project when I go to the soapUI Perspective view and do a 'Import Project.'  This works great.  My question is, how then do I take this imported SoapUI project and tie it to my current Maven Eclipse project and be able to see this SoapUI project when I am in the Java Perspective view?

I want to have my Maven project's pom file use the soapUI plugin to execute the testCase/testSuites in my current soapUI project file.

It is probably simple, I am just not seeing how to make this final connection between the soapUI and eclipse projects.

I followed the steps on installing the SoapUI plugin for Maven. Being new at this I was in need of some clarification from the instructions at:

http://www.soapui.org/plugin/maven2/index.html

Here are my notes in case anyone else gets stuck.


Prior to using the plugin, add the eviware maven 2 repository to your project's pom file;

Add the following soapUI plugin to your pom.xml
Here is my project's pom.xml. 

Please note that I moved the sample-soapui-project.xml file from the eviware SoapUI install directory to my local directory where my pom.xml file is located.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project>
   <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
   <groupId>MavenSoapProject</groupId>
   <artifactId>MavenSoapProject</artifactId>
   <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
   <description></description>
   <build>
      <plugins>
         <plugin>
            <groupId>eviware</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-soapui-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>1.7.6</version>
            <configuration>
               <projectFile>sample-soapui-project.xml</projectFile>
               <host>http://127.0.0.1:8181</host>
            </configuration>
         </plugin>
      </plugins>
   </build>
   
   <pluginRepositories>
      <pluginRepository>
         <id>eviwarePluginRepository</id>
         <url>http://www.eviware.com/repository/maven2/</url>
               <releases>
        <updatePolicy>daily</updatePolicy>
      </releases>
      <snapshots>
        <updatePolicy>daily</updatePolicy>
      </snapshots>
      </pluginRepository>
   </pluginRepositories>
</project>

Now the following maven commands will invoke the soapui sample project:

Run functional tests with

mvn eviware:maven-soapui-plugin:test

loadtests with

mvn eviware:maven-soapui-plugin:loadtest

and MockServices with

mvn eviware:maven-soapui-plugin:mock



Very nice and useful plugin. Especially when running inside eclipse.

I created a text file and added the following:

This string contains the unicode character &#xu03a0


for the contents of the file. Then I mad an attachment to the CID:##### tag. I read that the &#xXXXX syntax is what to use in XML. I still have to verify it works.  I think your suggestion will work as well.

thanks

I have a request that I would like to pass a unicode character as part of the string. Is this possible to do using SoapUi?

Here is my element.

<ind:data>cid:320147697557</ind:data>

I want to pass in something similar to this C# statement:

String search = "This string contains the unicode character Pi(\u03a0)"

Where the Pi create a unicode character in the string.

Thanks.
