Compare bodyString to simple String

I need to insert a check to compare response bodies. If I declare it like this:

check(bodyString.is(expectedResponseBody))
then I get the following error:

bodyString.find.is({"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":123456,"result":{"message":"OK"}}), but actually found {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":123456,"result":{"message":"OK"}}

I suppose the problem is different types, because the byte values are different. Should I use transform? If so, how should I do this? Thanks for your attention.

Weird.
Are you sure you don’t have a different character somewhere, such as Linux vs Windows line feeds and such?
Could you please provide a reproducer?

I tried different options and what did the trick is:

`
check(bodyString.transform(string => string.trim).is(expectedResponseBody))

`

Can it be the case, that leading and trailing are not being logged?

Could you compare the lengths?
Or provide a reproducer?

I unfortunately cannot provide a reproducer. The response is coming from our internal server. I tried to compare lengths though and got the following results:

`
09:15:20.826 - Expected response is: {“jsonrpc”:“2.0”,“id”:123456,“result”:{“message”:“OK”}}: Length: 55

09:15:20.826 - BodyString response is: {“jsonrpc”:“2.0”,“id”:123456,“result”:{“message”:“OK”}}
: Length: 56

`

So there was apparently a ‘\n’ character in the end, but it didn’t display in the 'bodyString.find.is(…) block.

In your original message, you copied:

bodyString.find.is({"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":123456,"result":{"message":"OK"}}), but actually found {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":123456,"result":{"message":"OK"}}

Are you sure you didn’t get an additional line feed after this line?

Yes, you are right. The whole message is:
