Re: Synchronizing Multiple SOAtest Servers using Jenkins and GIT
Re: Can an entire object from a REST API response be used in the next REST API?
Add a XML or JSON Data Bank (depending on payload format), and extract the root element of the payload.

Re: Mismatching SQL result and written data in writable table
The XPath you are using in your Data Bank for "field_B" is likely configured incorrectly. My guess is that it is likely extracting text nodes which do not exist the third and fifth row. You can try using the string() function instead of text(). So, if your XPath looks something like "/results/resultSet/rows/row/field_B/text()" then try changing it to "/results/resultSet/rows/row/field_B/string()".
Re: Can we send choice parms from Jenkins into SOAtest Rest Request
You have a few options:
- Define appropriate environment variables and then configure the payload to reference them. Use the -environmentConfig CLI option to pass the specific variable values that you want to use from the Jenkins job. See https://docs.parasoft.com/display/SOA20201/CLI+Options
- Define a CSV data source with a single row of data and configure the payload to use values from it. Configure the Jenkins job to rewrite the CSV file used by the data source before running the test.
- Define appropriate test variables in the .tst file, and configure the payload to use them. Create an Extension Tool at the start of the test scenario that reads the appropriate values from some external file and sets the values of the test variables.
All three of these options require the Jenkins job to write the values into a file that then gets processed by SOAtest - an XML file for -enviornmentConfig, a CSV file for the data source, or whatever format you would like for the test variables.

Re: Supported Eclipse versions
There should be no problem with installing SOAtest into a newer version of Eclipse. Note that SOAtest 2020.2 when it is released later this year will ship with Eclipse 2020-06.

Re: Rules Suppression Question, Source of a warning from a #define MACRO.
solution:
simply put a pragma in the macro:
#define CALC_INIT(val) \
_Pragma("parasoft-suppress MISRAC2012-RULE_14_3-i 'JtemS34884' ") \
( ((val) < THRESH) ? THRESH : (val) )
