Depends. You can use the Extractor Post-Processors to extract information from a response and store it in a variable. The variable can then be used in Soap request GUIs, but not in files. > 2) Can I create SOAP requests where the binary is inlined (these could end > up being very large) in the future I was going to be looking at MOTM ? You can put whatever you like in a file that is submitted as a Soap request. It's not advisable to have very large or binary content provided as part of the GUI. > 3) Is there a feature list comparison for JMeter and SOAPUI does anyone have > any experience of comparing these two and would they like to share there > findings? > > Many Thanks > > Harvey > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
