Integrating SoapUI with JUnit

Question

I am trying to integrate SoapUI into my preexisting JUnit tests. I have created a test in SoapUI 3.6.1. It works.

My next step is to apply it to my development environment. In my Eclipse project I have added the jar to my classpath. I also created the following test.

public class TestMySoapUICase
{

    @Test
    public void testCase() throws Exception
    {
        SoapUITestCaseRunner runner = new SoapUITestCaseRunner(); 
        runner.setProjectFile( "test/java/com/path/Test-soapui-project.xml" );
        runner.run();
    }
}

This test seems pretty trivial, but I am getting the following exception when running the test as a JUnit test:

It seems there are other people out there who have had this issue when running the application. Their solution was to set JAVA_HOME to point at jre6 instead of jre5. I tried this (not expecting it to work) and, well, was correct; it change nothing.

Does anybody out there have a solution to this issue?

Answer 1

Add soapui_folder/lib (where so soapui_folder - path to directory with unpacked soapui app) to classpath of your project and you set to go!

Answer 2

you need to add the commons-cli-1.2.jar file in this project after you also need to add the log4j 1.2.jar
