    Hello, It is possible to compare two JSON responses.

     

    Simplest approach is to parse the response using JsonSlurper and assert.

     

    import groovy.json.JsonSlurper

     

    def Response1 = context.expand( '${#TestStepName#Response}' ).toString()
          JSON1 = new JsonSlurper().parseText Response1

     

    def Response2 = context.expand( '${#TestStepName#Response}' ).toString()
          JSON2 = new JsonSlurper().parseText Response2

     

    assert JSON1 == JSON2

    I want to use My 1st response as a base line and I want to compare my 2nd response to my 1st response and check whether I'm getting the same response in both or not. Is it possible to check...???

        Hi,

         

        This is only giving whether the Assert passes or fails, could you suggest how to find the difference that which element was not present in the comparison.
