[TechCorner Challenge #15] Fetch a value/data from a JSON response using a Groovy Script

Task: Find a specific value in a JSON response using a Groovy script

This is a solution created for [TechCorner Challenge #15]

Hi,

Here is my attempt....

def TestCaselist=context.testCase.testSuite.getTestCaseList();
import groovy.json.*;

def jsonSlurper = new JsonSlurper();
def responseMessage;

def importantString = "some value";  // This is the value to look for....

def testStepName;
def found = false;
def returnString = '';

TestCaselist.each{

  def steps=it.getTestStepList(); //'it' is used for referring to current item
  steps.each{
    if(it.toString().contains('RestTest')){
      if(it.testRequest.response != null){ 
        // We only want to check steps where there is a response

        testStepName = it.name;  // We use this later.
        responseMessage = it.testRequest.response.contentAsString;  // Get the response as string
          if(responseMessage != null){
            // Only continue if message is not null.
            try {
              // Only proceeding if response parses into JSON
              def object = jsonSlurper.parseText(responseMessage);

              // Convert JSON back to a string and use contains function to check for importantString
              if(object.toString().contains(importantString)){
                // Found one.  Log it, append to return string and set found to true.
                log.info("Found '" + importantString + "' in Test Step " + testStepName);
                returnString = returnString + "Found '" + importantString + "' in Test Step " + testStepName + ".\n";
                found = true;
              }
            } catch(Exception e){
              // Not JSON - Don't have to log this, but only trying to ensure we only check JSON response.
              log.info(e);
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
}

if (found) {
  return returnString;
} else {
  return ("Could not find '" + importantString + "' in any JSON reponse.");
}

Hi sonya_m :

Thank you for letting me know, please refer below code,hope this will work

import groovy.json.*;

def testCases = testRunner.testCase.testSuite.getTestCaseList()
def jsonSlurper = new JsonSlurper()

def strToCheck = "VeryImportantString"
def returnText = ""

testCases.each{
	def steps = it.getTestStepList();
	steps.each{
//		Checking only the rest teststep
		if(it.config.type.toLowerCase() == "restrequest" ){
			response = it.getPropertyValue("response")
//			Checking whose response is not null
			if(response != null){
//				getting name to append
				def testStepName = it.name;
				def res = jsonSlurper.parseText(response);
				
//				checking that desired text exist or not
				if(res.toString().contains(strToCheck))
					returnText = returnText + " Found \"" + strToCheck + "\" in Test Step " + testStepName +" \n"
			}
		}
	}
}
if (returnText != null || returnText != "")
	return returnText
else
	return ("The value wasn't found")
