Does any one has any idea on executing the external command in LISA ?

I have had the following issue while running the command externally : I am running the external command to run the SOAP test suite through LISA external command option

But it's failing by throwing with the exception : I think it's not even recognizing the testrunner as a command.

When i was invoking the SOAP Test with the help of command line . It's running successfully.

Any ideas on invoking the SOAP UI Test suite with the help of execute external command ?

Correct Answer

Please try changing testrunner to testrunner.bat in the Command Line section.

Value of Path variable needs to be the directory where you have testrunner.bat (Not including the file name)

See the reply in context

Hi Akhil,

I can certainly see problem in your LISA External Command window. I think you have placed the path of your project in "Execute from Directory" if that's true then that's the problem because you should have SoapUI bin path in "Execute from Directory". See screen shot, make changes according to your file-system.

Suggestion: Try to use data-set for defining paths in properties so that you can re-use them.

I have the following comments:

1. The testrunner command that you want to run is from SoapUI. The exception you see is from the testrunner.exe from Lisa. You would want to change this to testrunner.bat (I believe the SOAP UI testrunner CLI is a batchfile)

2. In the Environment variables section the Lisa Execute External Command test step - override the default OS PATH to have the path to testrunner.bat as your first entry.

Yes it is testrunner.bat . I have added the environment variable PATH as an entry for the testrunner.bat file. Still it is coming up with this exception :
