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")
