I am trying to display a custom message in the e-mail that is sent after the job is built. I would like to include the svn url and another variable BranchId from where the code was checked out into the email body.
I tried SVN_URL_1 as given in the quick help on fields in the jenkins job-configure page, but it is displayed as it is in the email i.e. I get the actual string $SVN_URL_1 and not the value.
I tried adding a environment variable as shown below
Output is same, I get the string as is $BranchId.
Any ideas how to define such variables and use them later in email message?
I was trying to display the variable as $name, but the correct syntax of displaying any env variable/ parameter passed to the job/ env variable set as above is
${ENV,var="name"}
e.g.
${ENV,var="PATH"}
${ENV,var="BranchId"}

I'm trying to call a http endpoint. For that I need to specify a url that uses a query string to filter data.
Sample URL: http://example.com?date=2017-10-04T22:18.007Z
I need to use the current system time as a value for date query string.
I created a script and assigned the generated url with the current datetime to a variable. However, when I assigned that variable for the url field in the source HTTP definition, it did not resolve the variable.
Is there a way to solve this issue?
I do this all the time. As long as your script is running properly (you can test that with the test feature on the script), you are writing the URL value to a global variable (something like $URL), and you are writing that global variable out in your target (something like [URL]), it should work.
If you want to show your script (just where you are creating the URL), and your target URL field that could help narrow down the problem.
I need to generate a dynamic email address, username for API automation testing in postman. can you help me with this please.
I see two options on how you can get what you need.
Using already defined dynamic variables, such as timestamp: For example where you need a new email address, just use this:
user_{{$timestamp}}#example.com
The request will be sent with something like: user_1497475549#example.com
Define an variable in the pre-request script:
var randomEmail = 'DO YOUR PREFERRED RANDOMIZATION HERE';
pm.setEnvironmentVariable("email", randomEmail);
and use that variable like {{email}} when sending the request.
I am developing an email to file scenario where in I need the number of attachment count and its name so I can pas it to another flow. I know this can be done by MEL on the Variable component but I just cant get the values. Also, I tried to use for each but I can get the counter variable values. Please advise.
To get the count:
#[message.inboundAttachments.size()]
To get the names:
#[message.inboundAttachments.keySet()]
I have a SoapUI project which contains around 60 plus services. Each service requires some input which will be changed for every execution. So I have created certain Global Properties and assign some values to that properties.
I have to use these properties values in my SoapUI request ( i.e. JSON Format request ).
If it is groovy script means, I will use like this.
String HTiC_Username = com.eviware.soapui.model.propertyexpansion.PropertyExpansionUtils.globalProperties['HTiC_Username'].value;
But, how to get the value of the Global Property in the request?
Hope you understand my question. Please provide proper guidance.
Thanks
To dynamically "expand" (i.e. substitute) the value of a property into a test step, the following syntax is used: ${#scope#propertyName}
...where 'scope' refers to the level at which the property has been defined (e.g. Global, Project, TestSuite, TestCase).
So to expand a property named username defined as a Global property, for example, the following code can be used directly within a Request Test Step (e.g within a JSON body, or header value, etc):
${#Global#username}
To access the same property value within a Groovy Test Step, you can use the following syntax:
context.expand('${#scope#propertyName}')
...as in the following example:
context.expand('${#Global#username}')
What we did was the following:
created a test data file to store all the specific input data for the different services (testdata.properties)
Example content of testdata.properties:
Billing_customerID=1234567
OtherService_paymentid=12121212
....
create a SoupUi global parameter (File/Preferences/Global properties): testdata_filepath=C:\...
For specific services we added a Properties test step. You can specify the "Load from" field to our new global parameter: ${#Global#testdata_filepath} Now you can use the Load button to load parameters.
Finally you can reference the parameter in your xml in the following format: ${Properties#Billing_customerID}
Example content of a service with parameter:
...
<BillingCustomerIdentification>
<BillingCustomerID>${#Properties#Billing_customerID}</BillingCustomerID>
</BillingCustomerIdentification>
...
To set up your projects in this manner also helps to automate service tests eg. using Hudson (see my previous SO answer).
If it is too heavy and automation is not a target, you can simply use ${#Global#someinputvariable} format in your xml ;-)
I am using dynamic parameter to get value from user when he force build.User provides me publish directory path where i have to publish the solution if build is successful, so can any one please tell me how can i get this value in publishDir section.
Thanks in Advance.
u can refer your parameter by it's name, for example if your parameter name is pubdir then u can call it with following code.
$[pubdir] inside your publishdir section.
