[Resolved] JSON conversion to XML does not work
Hi,
Right now, I'm using a REST api for a Jira plugin, Zephyr (here's the documentation for reference [though not necessary for this issue]: http://docs.getzephyr.apiary.io/).
They all return JSON responses. SoapUI seems to automatically convert these to XML so they can be edited / processed.
However, one of them returns this:
Apparently soapUI's automatic JSON to XML conversion fails.
It returns this: <xml/>
Ergo, I can't manipulate it, transfer properties, etc.
Trying to use a groovy script to retrieve only the JSON as a string always returns the "<xml/>" response. Ex:
- def response = context.expand( '${name#Response}' ).toString()
- responseContent = testRunner.testCase.getTestStepByName("name").getPropertyValue("response")
ResponseAsXml does not work in this case, since the XML was not properly converted.
- Note: The error returned is "NCNames cannot start with the character 2d", probably because one of the elements starts with a number and that does not follow XML conventions.
Is there a way to:
1- Fix the response so it's "XML convertible" JSON?
or
2- Fetch the response as JSON only, not wrongly converted XML, so that it can be slurped?
