SOAPUI: How to include Groovy script from an external file

How can I include groovy script from an external file? enter image description here

I was tried to use:

def script = new GroovyScriptEngine('d:/soapui/payment.v2').with { 
    loadScriptByName( 'proxy.groovy' ) 
} 
this.metaClass.mixin script

But I get:

enter image description here

Update

Is there exists some possibility to pack my methods into jar or something like this, and use them from Script TextArea?

The simplest way is to use Groovy Test Step within SOAPUI to run the external script using the GroovyScriptEngine. I use GroovyUtils to find the Project's path so that the entire project can be kept in one place to aid source control, editing etc.

import groovy.lang.Binding
import groovy.util.GroovyScriptEngine

def groovyUtils = new com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils( context )

// location of script file is relative to SOAPUI project file.
String scriptPath = groovyUtils.projectPath + "/groovy/"

// Create Groovy Script Engine to run the script.
GroovyScriptEngine gse = new GroovyScriptEngine(scriptPath) 

// Load the Groovy Script file 
externalScript = gse.loadScriptByName("Utility.groovy")  

// Create a runtime instance of script
instance = externalScript.newInstance()

// Sanity check 
assert instance!= null

// run the foo method in the external script
instance.foo()

You can also create your scripts in java (eclipse) and then export it as a jar and add in soapui.

Here are the step:

  1. Create your code in java classes inside a package.
  2. Right click on the package and export (select jar)
  3. Add this jar to soapui /bin/ext folder (make sure to close soapui before this step)
  4. restart soapui and now you can import and use the scripts inside soapui as below.

  5. Create a groovy step and import the jar

    import package name.class name

  6. Call the function as:

    class name.function name(parameter);

For the mixin error message, you might get rid of that if you use ExpandoMetaClass.enableGlobally() and then this.metaClass = null. at the very beginning, before you start mixing in.

Try this:

GroovyShell gs = new GroovyShell(getBinding()); 
gs.evaluate(new File('path/to/external.groovy').text);

Or even this:

evaluate(new File('path/to/external.groovy'));
