how to save response when saving a SoapUI project

Question

I am using SoapUI 2.5.1 - evaluation version

In a testcase, how to save the response messages along with requests in a SoapUI project ?

Here is what is happening currently: When I create a Web service SoapUI project and send SOAP request for an operation, I get a response XML. Now after saving the soapUI and exiting the tool - when I open it again I see the response XML tab as empty.

Why only request gets saved and not responses - Is it a bug in SoapUI ?

Thanks -Arun

As Thomas Bratt indicates, the response is not saved because in most cases, it doesn't make sense to do so. SoapUI is intended for testing; if you want to save your test results, you'll have to do that explicitly.

To save a specific response message, use the context menu of the response editor, (or press Ctrl+S), and save it to file. You can load it back if you want, using the same context menu (or press Ctrl+L).
