Suppress Collection Scripts in one Requests?

[reibuehl]

Is there a way to suppress a collection script in one request of the collection?

I have for example the authentication request that receives an API access token in the collection and the same functionality as pre request collection script for all requests. I would like to suppress the run of this pre-request for the authentication request but have it on all others.

Hi, @reibuehl

You can skip specific request using bru.runner.skipRequest() but not pre-request script of the request.

Feel free to read the docs.

@ganesh-bruno I believe OP is not talking in the context of the collection run.

@reibuehl You could check the request name in the collection’s pre-request script and skip execution when it’s the authentication request.

if(req.getName() !== "Login") {
  // run authentication request code
}

Hi, @reibuehl

Quick check: were you able to try the workaround above?

I tried it but I got the error Error invoking remote method 'send-http-request': TypeError: req.getName is not a function I did not yet have the time to dig into this error. So if you have an idea, what to change, this would be very welcome.
