What's new in SoapUI 5.2.1
Oct 8, 2015
- A new bundled SwaggerHub plugin that helps you easily import Swagger API definitions from SwaggerHub to your project and to export your APIs to SwaggerHub. (SOAPUIOS-152)
- More efficient memory usage. (SOAPUIOS-154)
- A new feature by Stanislaw Wozniak (a GitHub user with the nickname sponte): The test runner has a new setting that commands SoapUI to export test case properties to JUnit-style reports. You can find the new “Export JUnit Results with test properties” check box on the Reports tab of the dialog, in which you specify the test runner's properties before the run. To enable this functionality from the command line, use the new -J command-line argument. (SOAPUIOS-156)
- A bug fix by Marc Paquette (marcpa00 in GitHub): Earlier versions of SoapUI doubled messages sent to the console log from Groovy code. Marc has fixed this. (SOAPUIOS-157)
- More bug fixes:
- The UXM AlertSite plugin did not add the "Monitor APIs" item to the product’s menu. (SOAPUIOS-166)
- An error ("Access mode for wsi-test-tools scripts couldn't be set") could occur when installing the product on Linux. (SOAPUIOS-161)
- Running WS-I Compliance for a SOAP service could cause an exception. (SOAPUIOS-158)
New in SoapUI 5.2.0 (Jul 3, 2015)
- Major New Features:
- You can use 4 new JSONPath-based assertions:
- JsonPath Count - Calculates the number of element occurrences in a JSON response.
- JsonPath Existence Match - Extracts data from a JSON response and compares it with an expected value.
- JsonPath Match - Checks if a JSON response contains specific node.
- JsonPath RegEx Match - Extracts data from a JSON response and verifies it with a regular expression. You can find the new assertions in the Add Assertions dialog, in the Property Content assertion group.
- You can create new empty projects (in earlier versions, projects had to be based on WSDL or WADL, or URI).
- Improvements:
- New look inspired by Ready! API.
- Support for Java 6 has been dropped. To run SoapUI, now you need to have Java 7 on your computer. The SoapUI installation package includes Java 7 modules, so if you use the installer, you do not have to download and install additional files.
- Old-style icons have been replaced with newer icons.
- Bundled Plugins:
- The SoapUI installation package includes the following plugins:
- MQTT plugin - Enables IOT testing of MQTT services.
- Swagger plugin - Enables loading and saving of Swagger interface descriptions.
- AlertSite UXM plugin - Enables distributed monitoring of APIs.
- Bugs Fixed:
- The JMS Timeout assertion did not work.
- SoapUI failed to find attachments specified by 'xop:Include href'.
- SoapUI failed to load plugins when you run tests with testrunner.bat and the current directory differed from bin.
- The "Help > Privacy Policy" menu item did not open any web page. Now it opens http://www.soapui.org/Store-Info/privacy-policy.html.
- In the Property Transfer test step editor, it was possible to add two items with the same name to the Transfers list.
- When you resized the "Contain" assertion edit window, the text in that window did not resize appropriately.
- The Overview tab of the REST Interface editor displayed "WSDL Definition" instead of "WADL Definition".
- There was a misprint in the SoapUI Preferences > WSDL Settings screen.
