#678 SoapUI 5.1.3 Bug: Property expansion not working with Response SLA Assertion

[Vijay Ramaswamy]

SoapUI Version: 5.1.3 (Free version)
JRE: Bundled with SoapUI (1.7)
Platform: Windows 7

I am trying to use a project level property for storing my expected Response SLA and reference this property within all Response SLA assertions within the project. However, this does not seem to work - everytime I type out the property name, SoapUI refuses to save it, and reverts back to the original numerical value which was initially present.

The official SoapUI documentation @ http://www.soapui.org/functional-testing/validating-messages/getting-started-with-assertions.html explicitly mentions that property expansions are supported within the Response SLA assertion (Refer Section 3.3), so I am surprised this is not working as expected.

It also appears this is a fairly long standing bug! The link http://forum.loadui.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=13138 suggests that this is more than 3 years old :(
