How to Compare an array from one Json Response to an array from another Json response.

Hi All,

I have 2 different json array and need to validate every n each attribute against each other .Earlier I used Message content assertion but I need to do for all array item manually. for example there is array for "Route"

is there any other way to compare array of response ?

    Here is a sample to compare two lists (books in this case). But you need to adopt the changes as per your data.

     

     

    def expectedJson = '''{
        "book": [
            {
                "title": "Beginning JSON",
                "price": 49.99
            },
    
            {
                "title": "JSON at Work",
                "price": 29.99
            }
        ]
    }'''
    
    def actualJson = '''{
        "book": [
            {
                "title": "JSON at Work",
                "price": 29.99
            },
            {
                "title": "Beginning JSON",
                "price": 49.99
            }
        ]
    }'''
    
    //Note that the order of books are different in the above 
    
    def getJson = { str -> new groovy.json.JsonSlurper().parseText(str)}
    def expectedBooks = getJson(expectedJson).book
    def actualBooks = getJson(actualJson).book
    
    //Check if both lists are sorted and compared
    assert actualBooks.sort() == expectedBooks.sort()

    You need to use groovy to achieve the same.

    Extract the data from the response body (JSON object array) in the form of JSON string Glasshouse view of code quality with every check-in In automating the requests, we need to pass the data in many requests in different forms.
