Groovy Script assert on Key/Value pairs in SOAP UI XML response - groovy

Question

I am using Ready API/SOAP UI. I added a SOAP request and I get a SOAP response XML. My response object has up to 40 Key/Value pairs.
I have functional tests to specifically test each.
Loop through the whole ArrayOfObjects and Assert if the Key exists and if it exists assert the value.
Can I get a working solution for this scenario. I am unable to do assert on the output object.
SOAP structure looks like this:
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<soap:Body>
<ArrayOfallObjects>
<ArrayOfObjects>
<Key>Key1</Key>
<Value>Value1</Value>
</ArrayOfObjects>
<ArrayOfObjects>
<Key>Key2</Key>
<Value>Value2</Value>
</ArrayOfObjects>
---------------
<ArrayOfObjects>
<Key>Key40</Key>
<Value>Value40</Value>
</ArrayOfObjects>
</ArrayOfallObjects>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
And I am using groovy script snippet as below
//Code Snippet Starts//
def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils(context)
def request = context.testCase.getTestStepByName("RequestName")
def responseCurrentHolder = groovyUtils.getXmlHolder( request.name +"#Response")
responseCurrentHolder.namespaces["ns1"] = "https://test.com"
def nodes = responseCurrentHolder.getDomNodes( "//ns1:Response/ns1:Result/ns1:ArrayOfallObjects/ns1:ArrayOfObject/*" )
def nodeCount = responseCurrentHolder.getNodeValues("//ns1:Response/ns1:Result/ns1:ArrayOfallObjects/ns1:ArrayOfObject/ns1:Key").length
def object = [:]
for (def nodeIndex = 1; nodeIndex <= nodeCount; nodeIndex++) {
def nodeKey = responseCurrentHolder.getNodeValues("//ns1:Response/ns1:Result/ns1:ArrayOfallObjects/ns1:ArrayOfObject[$nodeIndex]/ns1:Key/text()")
def nodeValue = responseCurrentHolder.getNodeValue("//ns1:Response/ns1:Result/ns1:ArrayOfallObjects/ns1:ArrayOfObject[$nodeIndex]/ns1:Value/text()")
object.put( nodeKey,nodeValue)
}
log.info "Object =" +object
// Code snippet ends//
And the object looks like:
Object =[[Key1]:Value1, [Key2]:Value2, and so on upto --,[Key40]:Value40]

Answer 1

You can use Script Assertion for the same soap request test step to verify the same without adding additional Groovy Script test step.
Not sure if above sample has the same xml structure (if not exact). Otherwise, adopt the changes to suit your need.
Here is the approach:
Since there is complex data to be verified, and there is key, value pattern; so define a map as expected data like you pointed in the last.
Read the xml response, and create similar map out of it. At times, it may require to sort the retrieved data by key (or other criteria based on the data).
Then check if both expected and actual data.
Script Assertion:
//Define expected data; using few elements as sample
def expectedMap = [Key1: 'Value1', Key2: 'Value2', Key40: 'Value40']
//Check if there is response
assert context.response, 'Response is empty or null'
//Parse the response
def xml = new XmlSlurper().parseText(context.response)
//Extract the data, create actual map and sort by key
def actualMap = xml.'**'.findAll {it.name() == 'ArrayOfObjects' }.collectEntries {[(it.Key.text()): it.Value.text()]}​?.sort {it.key}
log.info actualMap
assert expectedMap == actualMap
You can quickly try it online demo

The below code first get all keys in an array(x) and all values in another array
y(x). You may add them in a map if not you can directly assert values
The below is one of the easiest and simpler way of validating key value pair
Just replace the 'First Step' with the name of the step where response is generated
def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils(context)
def response = groovyUtils.getXmlHolder("First Step#Response")
def x = response.getNodeValues("//*[local-name()='ArrayOfObjects']//*[local-name()='Key']")
for ( def keys in x)
{
log.info keys
}
def y = response.getNodeValues("//*[local-name()='ArrayOfObjects']//*[local-name()='Value']")
for ( def values in y)
{
log.info values
}
log.info "total keys are " + x.size()
for(int i = 0 ; i < x.size() ; i++)
{
log.info " key = " + x[i] + " Value = " + y[i]
}
Here is the result when i ran the above script
Sat Oct 28 14:41:57 IST 2017:INFO:Key1
Sat Oct 28 14:41:57 IST 2017:INFO:Key2
Sat Oct 28 14:41:57 IST 2017:INFO:Key40
Sat Oct 28 14:41:57 IST 2017:INFO:Value1
Sat Oct 28 14:41:57 IST 2017:INFO:Value2
Sat Oct 28 14:41:57 IST 2017:INFO:Value40
Sat Oct 28 14:41:57 IST 2017:INFO:total keys are 3
Sat Oct 28 14:41:57 IST 2017:INFO: key = Key1 Value = Value1
Sat Oct 28 14:41:57 IST 2017:INFO: key = Key2 Value = Value2
Sat Oct 28 14:41:57 IST 2017:INFO: key = Key40 Value = Value40
