How to cancel certain TestStep in TestCase

Question

I am required to cancel a specific TestStep (SoapRequest) in TestCase depending on condition. So I decided to create Groovy Script.

import com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.teststeps.*;

String  inMoney = context.expand( '${#Project#Money}' );
def step =  testRunner.getTestCase().getTestStepByName("creditMoney");
log.info "step: $step";
if ((inMoney == '0') && (step instanceof WsdlTestRequestStep ) &&  (step != null)) 
step.cancel();

But this code doesn't cancel the test step instead returns always 'false'. If that was the last TestStep in TestCase, I could just call testRunner.cancel(), and it would work. But in my case this is not an option. Does somedody have ideas to figure out this problem? Thanks.

a simple google search have me this link soapui.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4576 did this not work for you? — Abhishek Asthana

To control test execution flow you can use "Conditional Goto" test step (the easiest way) or "Groovy script" test step if you need more complex logic.

Detailed instructions here: http://www.soapui.org/Functional-Testing/controlling-flow.html

If you decide to use groovy script and you need to cancel not the last step, you can just run next step by name in groovy script:

testRunner.runTestStepByName( "next_step_name")
