Groovy syntax to parse data from XML

I need to get the value 3 from the below xml file using groovy script. I am testing from SOAPUI

 <ParamId>3</ParamId>

Can anyone please share me the syntax to get the value? I tried the following code. But I think I need to iterate to the third Param..

def msgTxt = response.getDomNode("//ns2:ParamId").getLastChild().getNodeValue()  



<RequestParams>
            <Param>
               <ParamId>1</ParamId>
               <ParamName>Name1</ParamName>
               <ParamType>String</ParamType>
               <ParamValue>value1</ParamValue>
            </Param>
            <Param>
               <ParamId>2</ParamId>
               <ParamName>Name2</ParamName>
               <ParamType>String</ParamType>
               <ParamValue>value2</ParamValue>
            </Param>
            <Param>
               <ParamId>3</ParamId>
               <ParamName>Name3</ParamName>
               <ParamType>String</ParamType>
               <ParamValue>2</ParamValue>
            </Param>
</RequestParams>

If you are using groovy scripts then this will work.

parse.groovy

import org.apache.maven.artifact.ant.shaded.xml.XmlStreamReader
/**
 * @author maba, 2012-08-24
 */

def root = new XmlSlurper().parse(new XmlStreamReader(new File('path/to/data', 'data.xml')))
def msgText = root.Param[2].ParamId.text()

And I think you can do this instead of reading from file:

def root = new XmlSlurper().parseText(response.xmlText())

But I am not sure what the type of response is. Here I assumed an XmlTokenSource from XmlBeans.

This should work for SoapUI XmlHolder:

def root = new XmlSlurper().parseText(response.getXml())
