I need to be able to put a Range into my Assertions

In order to be able to change Environments easily, I need to be able to put a Range into my Assertions for a TotalResults field.  I have found references on the board to the ability to do this but I ...

    That got me close enough.  Here is what I did.  Two assertions:

     

    Lower End of the Range:

    XPath Expression:

    declare namespace ns1='http://ws.ussco.com/eCatalog/catalog/1';
    ${DataSource RedPen SmallBS#totalResultsLowerRange} <= //ns1:getSearchResponse[1]/ns1:searchResponse[1]/ns1:ItemPage[1]/ns1:TotalResults[1]

     

    Expected Result:

    true

     

    Upper End of the Range:

    declare namespace ns1='http://ws.ussco.com/eCatalog/catalog/1';
    ${DataSource RedPen SmallBS#totalResultsUpperRange} >= //ns1:getSearchResponse[1]/ns1:searchResponse[1]/ns1:ItemPage[1]/ns1:TotalResults[1]

     

    Expected Result:

    true

     

    And then all the Requests in my data set don't have to match exactly.

     

    Thanks for giving me both methods!

By the you can try below xpath to see if that helps


declare namespace:ns1="http://ws.ussco.com/eCatalog/catalog/1";
181 >= //ns1:ItemPage/ns1:TotalResults < 200

 

And expected value as true

    This solution worked for the Web Services version of the call but now moving to the JSON version, the same method isn't quite the same.

     

    JSONPath Expression

    $.searchResult.products

     

    Expected Result

    ${SBS DataSource#count}

     

    If I try -

    ${SBS DataSource#countLowerRange} <= $.searchResult.products is true

     

    it throws the following error -

    Assertion failed. Path [${SBS DataSource#count} = $.searchResult.products]:AssertionException:Assertion failed. Path [${SBS DataSource#count} = S.searchResult.products]: ClassCastException:java.lang.String cannot be cast to net.sf.json.JSON.

     

    Is there a way to do it in the JSON as well?

     

    Thanks,
