Road to data driven testing in SoapUI from csv file

In this post I will show you how to execute SoapUI test for a set of values. For this I have put all data in csv file. I write groovy scripts for reading data from csv and executing the test steps.
Below is the groovy script for reading data from “URL.csv” file where I put all user credentials.

def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils(context)

def csvFilePath = "D:\\URL.csv"
context.fileReader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(csvFilePath))

rowsData = context.fileReader.readLines()
int rowsize = rowsData.size()

for(int i =0;  I < rowsize;  i++)
{

    rowdata = rowsData[i]
    String[] data = rowdata.split(",")
    log.info data[1]
   
    groovyUtils.setPropertyValue("Login", "UserName", data[0])
    groovyUtils.setPropertyValue("Login", "Pass", data[1])
    testRunner.runTestStepByName( "Login")  
}

In above code I read data from “URL.csv” file and pass user name and password into “UserName “ and “Pass” of Login steps parameters.
“Login”  test step executed by using test runner for every data.

  2. Could you also post the script for reading values from excel and database? If the REST request is of type POST and you are sending a XML body in which the child elements are dynamic and I wanted to make these values dynamically read from an .csv, excel and databases.

    e.g. If I want to read values for the sku1,sku2 and add from SINGLE .csv file or excel and database(sqlserver). Could you please provide scripts for this scenario

    Rest Request:
    http://www.url.com/resource1/resource2/{locale}/{query2}
    Body:
    -
    --
    1234567
