Hi Nocia,
When you store an XPath value in a WebTest property, you can't directly
access it as a Groovy variable in your test since WebTest properties are not
shared with Groovy (yet).
Depending on what you need to do with the property, there are 2 approaches:
1) If all you want to do is use the property in another test step, then you
can simply use this syntax: #{insert-property-name}
Here's an example: invoke "somecontroller/someaction/#{someResult}"
2) If you actually need to use the property in some Groovy expression then
you can create a Groovy step, retrieve the property from within the Groovy
step, store it as a Groovy variable and use it there.
Here's an example of how to do that:
storeXPath xpath:'//div[2]', property:'someResult'
groovy """
def groovyResult = step.webtestProperties.someResult
// do something in Groovy with groovyResult....
// now if you need to, put the modified Groovy variable back
into WebTest properties so you can access it in your subsequent test steps.
props.putAt("someResult",groovyResult)
"""
Good luck,
Dave
