set a date from a testcase property

« on: June 11, 2008, 03:35:20 pm »

hi,

i have a testcase where i have a date field where i always want to have the actual date from today and not a fixed date from the datepicker. so i did a simple groovy script to generate todays date, store it as a testsuite property and would like to import that testsuite property into the date field.
but whenever i close the request and reopen it i have the date in there and not the property value anymore.

is there a way to keep the property value?

thanks,
Christoph

Hi Chris,

hmm.. what exactly are you entering into the field that gets replaced with the actual date?

Hi Ole,

i want to do something like this request from a database:

<soapenv:Body>
<sec:GetList>

<sec:AuditLogEntryRequest>

<sec1:UserName>AnyUser</sec1:UserName>

<sec1:Module>Module</sec1:Module>

<sec1:EventContract>IContract</sec1:EventContract>

<sec1:EventOperation>Login</sec1:EventOperation>

<sec1:CreatedFrom>2008-06-10T00:00:00.000+02:00</sec1:CreatedFrom>

<sec1:CreatedUntil>2008-06-12T00:00:00.000+02:00</sec1:CreatedUntil>
</sec:AuditLogEntryRequest>

where i would like to replace the Date in <sec1:CreatedFrom>2008-06-10T00:00:00.000+02:00</sec1:CreatedFrom> with a date from a property: ${#TestSuite#TodaysDate} (currently set to Wed Jun 11 16:39:07 CEST 2008)

so the createdFrom should look like this: <sec1:CreatedFrom>${#TestSuite#TodaysDate}</sec1:CreatedFrom>

thanks,
Chris

Hi,

ok.. and you're saying that when you enter this property-expansion in the form field, it gets expanded/removed when you open/close the request? Which version/build are you running?

regards!

Hi,

yes, i try to select it on the form and it is displayed, but when i switch to the xml then there the date is still shown and when i switch back to the form the date there is shown again.

i originally created the request in the service with a date set, then copied it to a testcase and wanted to select the property extension.

i tried to enter it manually in the xml and this works.

i am using version 2.0.2

regards,
Chris

i got the same problem. Maybe the date format fields are not accesable with properties ?

have you tried to paste the propertyextension directly into the xml ?

Hi,

for me it works when i manually copy the property string in the XML like this: <sec1:CreatedFrom>${#TestSuite#TodaysDate}</sec1:CreatedFrom>

regards
Chris
