script assertion

[Donkey2017]

Hi, not being a programmer could anyone suggest a way to check if the property "apples" has a number rather than just null for example. So below is the result of running a test. I can easily ask SOAP to check if there is an item called "apples" but I have no idea how to ask if "apples" equals a numerical value- any value not just 111.

{  

"CONTENT":   

{      "apples": 111,  

},

.......in my own language.... I have a test in SOAP- one element of that test = "apples". I want to add a SCRIPT Assertion that checks that the test has created a Value for "apples" and not just a blank or "0".

thanks in advance

.....almost total non-programmer

Can you post complete data (need not be your exact data), but should be same structure.
By the way, below are some examples using json.

Thanks Rao, below is what is returned after running the test:

{
   "CONTENT":    {
      "FILTERS": [],
      "asset_id": null,
      "asset_subtype": "xxxxxx",
      "asset_type": "xxxxxxx",
      "cost_multiplier": 0,
      "created_date": 20170602,
      "created_time": 153701,
      "effective_date": 20201123,
      "expiry_date": 20221101,
      "id": 114,
   },
   "message": "Modifier successfully saved.",
   "modifier_id": 114,
   "status": "OK"
}

Associated with this test are 2 simple assertions:

1. Valid HTTP Status Code

2. JsonPath ExistenceMatch---- here I just check ID exists; which it does -114

It is the ID I am most interested in but knowing that ID is there is kind of pointless if I cannot check that a value has been created for it. I can make an error with the input so and ID result is not created but the assertion would still be valid- ID would still be there but empty.

I need to check that a value has been produced- it could be 1 or 99999999 so long as an ID value has been produced.

I did look at your link but I simply do not understand enough to apply it in an useable way.

You mean to say value should be in the range between x and y (x, y belongs to integer)

Hi Rao, no it does not need to be between any range in particular- it just has to be a number- any number; so long as it is not "null" or nothing..... as in  "".

I just need to check that an integer has been created for the item ID.

Thanks

//Below Script Assertion should do the job
def json = new groovy.json.JsonSlurper().parseText(context.response)
//check id is number
assert json.CONTENT.id instanceof Integer, 'id is not integer type'
assert 0 < json.CONTENT.id, 'id is not a positive number'

OMG! Thanks so much Rao..... that did the trick. Now I'll try to apply your script to other conditions...

You can mark accept as solution.
