How can I get a property value from the Project in groovy?

Question

I'm retrieving some information from a db, using groovy scripts in my test cases.&nbsp; Instead of hard coding the userid, password, etc.&nbsp; I decided to make them properties of the project.&nbsp; The problem is I can't seem to figure out how to retrieve properties from the project.&nbsp; I was able to get/set properties at the testcase level but can't figure out the correct syntax to retrieve the project level properties.

Thanks Robert,&nbsp; I've already gone over that page and I've been able to use the sample:// get request propertydef request = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName( "Request 1" );def property = request.getProperty( "request" );to retrieve properties at the testStep and testCase level but still can't figure out how to access the properties set at the project level.&nbsp; I recently tried moving the properties down to the testSuite level but still haven't been able to accees the properties.&nbsp; I've tried:def hTestSuite = testRunner.getTestSuiteByName("My TestSuite");but I get the error:groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.panels.support.MockTestRunner.getTestSuiteByName() is applicable for argument types: (java.lang.String) values: {"My TestSuite"}

nevermind,&nbsp; I figured it out:def&nbsp; hTestProject = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.workspace.getProjectByName("MyTest");def pdbUserId = hTestProject.getPropertyValue("dbUserId");

How about:def propValue = context.testCase.testSuite.project.property["some prop"].valuewhere&nbsp; "some prop" is property name on project level.or :context.expand( '${#Project#prop name}' )robert

Thank you those make even&nbsp; it easier.This leads to another question though,&nbsp; I started using the dbUserId = context.expand( '${#Project#dbUserId}' );to pull the property value.How can I set a property value? I tried: context.setProperty( '${#TestCase#currdattim}', currentDateChar26() );I don't get any errors, but it also doesn't set the property value.
