Read XML tag values based on other tags using Groovy Script

Question

I'm new to Groovy scripting and I need some help in fetching tag values based on different tag. Below is the response I'm receiving from my application through SOAP.

I need SET_CD tag values to be concatenated if VISIBLE node is true. In this example, I need output of my groovy script as QS1, QS2. How can I achieve this?

Thanks!!

Answer 1

Here is the script that queries the xml where VISIBLE = true and fetches the SET_CD values and joins them.

Note that the xml provided in the question is not well-formed. Fixed that while testing.

Groovy Script

//Pass the xml string to parseText method
def parsedXml = new XmlSlurper().parseText(xml)
def result = parsedXml.'**'.findAll {it.VISIBLE == true}.SET_CD.join(',')
println result
assert result instanceof String
