Determine if SoapUI (ReadyAPI) is started via testrunner.bat or by the user (running in UI-mode) - batch-file

Question

Is it possible to determine if SoapUI (ReadyAPI) is started
via testrunner.bat
by the user (running in interactive UI-mode)
I know that you can retrieve the current environment using this groovy script code:
def env = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.activeEnvironment.name
However I wonder what value this will return when running via the command-line (testrunner.bat) ; will it return the active environment from the test project, or will it be null/empty ?
Update (use-case)
The user case is that depending on the way the tests are run. In case of testrunner.bat I want to be able to set the environment to a fixed value. Else I want enable the user to select the environment manually.
Note that the some environment settings like EndPoints for each environment are defined a pre-defined XML file.
Update (possible solution)
#albciff
On the latest version from ReadyAPI (1.9.0), this does not work as you described.
testrunner.bat returns SoapUIProTestCaseRunner
running via ui returns InProcessSoapUIProTestCaseRunner
When using this code:
def runner = com.eviware.soapui.SoapUI.getCmdLineRunner();
log.info "runner = [" + runner.getClass().getSimpleName() + "]"

Answer 1

A more easier way to detect this would be:
if (com.eviware.soapui.SoapUI.isCommandLine()) {
// todo
}

I think that there is no property inside SOAPUI to difference between how it's executed. In fact I test your proposal:
def env = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.activeEnvironment.name
And it returns Default for both cases (from UI and using testrunner).
A possible workaround to do so, it's for example to pass a project property parameter in the CLI of the testrunner execution; and then in your code check for this parameter to detect how the project is launched.
To pass a project property you've to use -Pname=value. So for example launch the testrunner using:
testrunner -r -I <path/To/yourProject.xml> -PrunningBy=testRunner
And then in your code you can get the property and check for this content to decide if it's running by testrunner or from the UI, something like:
def runningBy = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.project.getPropertyValue('runningBy')
if(runningBy){
// it's not null so is launched from testRunner
}else{
// it's null, so is launched from UI
}
UPDATE
After reviewing the API seems that it's possible thought the follow method:
com.eviware.soapui.SoapUI.getCmdLineRunner()
It returns null when executed from UI, instead when executed from testrunner it returns and instance of com.eviware.soapui.tools.CmdLineRunner.
So you can use something like:
def clr = com.eviware.soapui.SoapUI.getCmdLineRunner()
if(clr){
// it's not null so is launched from testRunner
}else{
// it's null, so is launched from UI
}
