DataSource flexibility for types such as boolean

« on: April 03, 2008, 03:24:44 pm »

Anybody have any idea how I would load e.g. a boolean from a Data Source such as an Excel file into a Test Request. String types and Integer Types are no problem to load obviously but booleans and dates and enumerators are proving a problem.

Cheers,

Desmond

Hi Ole,
I have a WCF DataContract which accepts strings, booleans, dates and enumerations. I wanted to create an Excel sheet with values which could be read as a DataSource and passed into e.g a Create Request...quite simple really....Now I can read the values with the DataSource but in the SoapUI when I want to specify the property for that boolean IN THE REQUEST there doesn't seem to be a way of doing this...The form doesn't have the right click to GetData....for those dataTypes...

Regards,

Desmond.

Hi,

Thanks for clarifying. You are correct, the form editor does not support the GetData option for all types of elements/attributes. For now you will have to switch to either the XML source or Outline editor and use the GetData popup menu there instead to insert the correct propert-expansions.

Sorry for the inconvenience, this will be fixed in a coming version.

regards!
