Hi,
I am new to using this tool.
I am trying to explore if the SoapUI generates the log file containing all the request-response details for the Load tests that we run.

I have tried the following methods and could generate the request-response log for load tests.
Please let me know if it is a limitation that we cannot log requests and responses when running the load test.

1. When I tried running the load test using the GUI, i am seeing in the Soa UI log window "Disabling logs during load test"

2. When tried to run the command liner , loadtestrunner.bat, i am entering an infinite loop that says "waiting for 1 samples.."

Here is the command that I gave for this:

loadtestrunner.bat "C:\soap_ui\PBS-soapui-project.xml" -t"C:\Program Files\eviware\soapUI-Pro-1.7\bin\soapui-settings.xml" -s"TestSuite 1" -c"TestCase 1"  -l"LoadTest 1"  -a -r

 Following is the output in this case.

Hi!

sorry for the delay, this is a bug in the command-line LoadTest runner. We plan to post an updated build of soapUI Pro this weekend, which fixes this and a number of other issues..

Even with this fix, there is no easy way to log all request/response messages in a LoadTest. You can work around this limitation with a "soapUI hack";
1) create an xpath assertion for the request/response that you want logged and make sure that it always fails
2) add an teststep status assertion for this request step to your loadtest (it probably already has one), and set the "max assertions" to a *very high value* (so it actually nevery fails the LoadTest.. )..

All failed TestSteps in a LoadTest will get logged, which in the above workaround will be all requests sent.. If you do as above and *dont* specify the -r option for your LoadTest, you should even be able to run this from the command-line.

Obviously this is not a good solution, but at least it might help you forward until we have added an option for logging as you require!

Hope this helps, and thanks for reporting!

regards,
