I just want to extract navTok value in the Next link actually.

for example :

"NEXT" :"https://localhost:8080/navTok=72638726387sjhgfdsjfgsj82364"

The thing is i need to extract the navTok value using groovy script.

 

Please do the needful on this.

 

  • Hi sukanya

     

    The code which i provided above will do the same which you want to do

     

    Copy and paste it in script assertion

     

    And it will save you Dara in testcase level property

    Do you have a groovy script you are working with already? If so, we can likely build off of that.

      I actually want to extract the Next value and store it in a value named "NextLink"  and also i need to extract the navTok value from the below Json response

  • Hi sukanya

     

    Here you go, just look at below code snippet and modify it accordingly if you need any:

     

    //This is for extracting Next Link data
    //imports
    import groovy.json.JsonSlurper
    
    //grab the response
    def ResponseMessage = messageExchange.response.responseContent
    
    //define a JsonSlurper
    def jsonSlurper = new JsonSlurper().parseText(ResponseMessage)
    
    //verify the slurper isn't empty
    assert !(jsonSlurper.isEmpty())
    
    def NextData = jsonSlurper.Links.Next
    //it will store the value of Next in TestCase level properties
    context.testCase.setPropertyValue("NextData",NextData)
    
    
    //This is For navTok Data
    
    NextData = NextData.toString()
    strLen = NextData.length()
    
    if(NextData.contains("navTok"))
    {	
    	navtokIndex = NextData.lastIndexOf("navTok")
    	navtokIndex = navtokIndex + 7
    	navtokString = NextData.substring(navtokIndex, strLen)
    	context.testCase.setPropertyValue("navTokData",navtokString)	
    }
    else
    {
           assert(true:false):"String not found"
    }

     

    Do mark it as a solution if it fulfills your need. :smileyvery-happy:

     

    Cheers,

      //grab the response
      def ResponseMessage = messageExchange.response.responseContent

      Thank for your inputs. 

      1. After running the RESTRequst, got the response in SoapUI.

      2. Would like to grab the above response(Point# 1) and assign it to the variable "ResponseMessage". Please refer the attached screen shots and advise on this.

        def ResponseMessage = messageExchange.response.responseContent

         

        With this code you saved your response in variable named ResponseMessage.

        I am not getting where are you stucking?

        or what you exactly wanna do?

         

        Thanks,

  • Hi,

     

    Yes, it worked. And also i just need code to do pagination. I want the next links to be clicked and get the other responses. 

    Can you please help me in doing that.
