Soapui Script Assertion, when Json response return as string
My Json response(which return as string),
"[{\"sysSerial\":5,\"policyName\":\"hold\",\"uploadPolicyTypes\":[{\"sysSerial\":36,\"uploadPolicyId\":5,\"type\":null,\"isUploadMetaData\":true}]}]"
My Script Assertion,
But I'm getting an error "A JSON payload should start with an openning curly brace '{' or an openning square bracket '['.
Instead, '"[{"sysSerial":5,"policyName":"hold"...' was found on line: 1, column: 1"
How to fix this script, I just want to assert that my response should not be empty and sysSerial is equal to 5.
So I have fixed my own problem by simple regular expressions , Thank you nmrao once again for giving me an idea.
Here is the code,
//imports import groovy.json.JsonSlurper //grab the response def ResponseMessage = messageExchange.response.responseContent // replace "(starting&ending), [](starting&ending) and \ with space from response def TrimResponse =ResponseMessage.replaceAll('^\"|\"$','').replaceAll('^\\[|\\]$','')replaceAll('\\\\','') //define a JsonSlurper def jsonSlurper = new JsonSlurper().parseText(TrimResponse) //verify the slurper isn't empty assert !(jsonSlurper.isEmpty()) assert jsonSlurper.sysSerial != null assert jsonSlurper.sysSerial == 5 assert jsonSlurper.uploadPolicyTypes[0].sysSerial == 36Cheers,
Geeta
