Re: Property Transfer Test Step adding extra bracket in the value

    Add the JSON path expression $.data.seed under the source Login Request 1 then you should see the transferred value.

    alfonsolft, it was mentioned in the earlier reply

    ie., use ${#TestCase#SEED} in other steps.

    As you can see the error message:
    It is line 1, column1

    where the script is even not started. May be so copy paste or special invisible characters? not sure.

    Hi

    The script assertion would need to be added to the first request. If added to the second request the response will be different and the script would fail.

    The result of the property transfer step is the same anyway so you can choose whichever method is easier.

alfonsolft,

 

Not really familiar with JSONPath.

 

You can use Script Assertion for the REST Request step and remove Property Transfer test step and use below code for Script Assertion:

 

 

assert context.response, 'Response is null or empty'

def json = new groovy.json.JsonSlurper().parseText(context.response)
assert json.data.seed, 'Seed value in the response is empty or null'

//Store seed value in test case level custom property

context.testCase.setPropertyValue('SEED', json.data.seed)

In the following steps, wherever SEED value is needed use ${#TestCase#SEED}

Thanks Nmrao ,

 

This is first time that I´m going to use a  "Script Assertion".  How  Can I use the SEED from the response JSON´s service in the followings request?.

 

Annex the json service screen

      ok Nmrao ,

       

      When I executed the code, there is a Error:

       

      Lexing failed on line:1 column:1, while Reading 'E', no posible valid JSON value or punctuation coul be recognised.
