SoapUI - Control flow from groovy

Question

In my groovy script I've a loop that I want to execute test step "MyTestStep" to run two times:

for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
    testRunner.runTestStepByName("MyTestStep2")
}

Works fine when I run the groovy script - but when I start the test case, the test runner first runs my groovy script and then once again "MyTestStep".

This is not what I want.

Suggestions on how I can run the test step only from groovy-script?

--MyTestCase
---TestStep1 GroovyScript that executes teststep2 two times
---TestStep2: MyTestStep containing a rest request

So when I press play of MyTestCase: first groovy script starts, which is ok. But then the test continues to execute TestStep2 once more.

Answer 1

I answer my own question since I figured it out: Instead of:

testRunner.runTestStepByName("MyTestStep2")

I used:

testRunner.gotoStepByName("MyTestStep2")
