How do I change/toggle the path in all my SoapUI tests?

Question

We have two different environments and for those environments the endpoint and the path changes, e.g.

http://env-qa.domain.com/path1/serviceName

http://env-uat.domain.com/path2/serviceName

I know how to use the Environments feature to change the Endpoint URL (e.g., http://env-qa.domain.com/) but how do I change the path (e.g. /path1/serviceName)?

I looked through the Environments help, etc. but can't find anything that tells me how to do this. The help is ... sparse and much of it is out of date.

Couple of options

1. Duplicate the suite, one with one path, one with the other. This could cause you maintenance headaches though

2. Create a variable for the property (template) and have a conditional go to in a test script

   • Groovy Script (If env = UAT go to Properties (UAT))
   • Properties (Live endpoint)

   • Property Transfer to endpoint of Test Steps

   • Test steps

   • Groovy Script (Go to End Step, code at bottom)

   • Properties (UAT endpoint)
   • Property Transfer to endpoint of Test Steps

   • Groovy Script (Go to Test, code at bottom)

   • End Step

Groovy Script (Go to End Step)

testRunner.gotoStepByName("End Step")
log.info 'Gone To End Step'

Groovy Script (Go to Test Steps)

testRunner.gotoStepByName("Test steps")
log.info 'Gone to Test steps'
