How do I set assertion for Set-Cookie in the response header

Hi!

please try creating a script assertion with the following content:

assert messageExchange.responseHeaders["Set-Cookie"].equals( "MyName=MyValue;" )

regards!

Thanks, Ole.  Works great except that I want to check for a variable within the cookie.  For example, "MyValue=somedata${Property#propertyName}somemoredata"

In other words, each each time I run this the cookie value changes dependent on a property I send to the request.

Is that possible?

Hi!

Try the following:

def value = messageExchange.responseHeaders["Set-Cookie"]
assert( value.equals( context.expand( 'MyValue=somedata${Property#propertyName}somemoredata' ))

regards!

Thanks Ole. 

Is it possible to add a wild card to this?  For example, there is a date string (the cookie expires on...).  I don't really care what the date is so it's OK to just replace it with a wildcard.

So the whole cookie looks like this:

MATCH=%7B%22mmUser%22%3A%22mmuser${Properties#number}%22%2C%22mmOpenId%22%3A%22OpenID${Properties#number}%22%7D; Domain=.xxx.net; Expires=Sun, 15-Mar-2009 14:02:46 GMT; Path=/

And I want to search for:
MATCH=%7B%22mmUser%22%3A%22mmuser${Properties#number}%22%2C%22mmOpenId%22%3A%22OpenID${Properties#number}%22%7D; Domain=.xxx.net; Expires=*

Hi,

well, easiest is maybe to just trim the Set-Cookie string after the expires value;


def value = messageExchange.responseHeaders["Set-Cookie"]
value = value.substring( 0, value.indexOf( "; Expires=" ))
...

(this will of course also remove the "; Expires=" part of the header..)

would that work?

This works perfectly.  Thanks for all your help.
