Artifacts

This operation doesn't consume or produce any artifacts.

Endpoint Selection

This operation delegates endpoint selection to the workflow developer. The workflow editor will default the selection to "All", which selects all available endpoints associated to the environment instance.

Selecting a specific resource will result in selection of endpoints associated to the environment instance which have that resource defined.

Endpoint Execution

This operation delegates endpoint execution to the workflow developer. The workflow editor will default to "Any", which will execute on any one of the selected endpoints, which will be randomly picked from selected endpoints or a specific endpoint where previous step may have executed. Changing this value to "All" to will result in execution on all selected endpoints.

Special Considerations

If you specify the –f parameter, the results will be copied to the location specified in a subfolder created at the time of the execution. This prevents the tests from overwriting each other, and organizes them by the time the tests were run for comparison purposes.

If you would like to turn down the logging in SoapUI, it is necessary to edit the soapui-log4j.xml on the testing instance. Change the section shown below from DEBUG to ERROR.

<logger name="com.eviware.soapui">
<level value="DEBUGERROR" /> 
<appender-ref ref="SOAPUI"/> 
<appender-ref ref="CONSOLE"/> 
</logger>
