ELFileBody as an expected output

Hi,

I would like to compare JSON response with expected output in ELFileBody
(I need to pass values from session to my .json template files and I don’t want to use jsonPath).
For check:

`
.check(bodyString.is(ELFileBody(“default.json”))

`

I receive failed comparison result:

`

Request ‘xxx’ failed: bodyString.find.is([
{
“id”: 777
}
]), but actually found [{“id”:777}]

`

Any idea for easy way to make response and expected output comparable?

Either format your file in a way that matches the actual response, instead of being prettyfied, or transform the ElFileBody (it’s a Expression[String]) and map it to unprettyfy.

Hi Stephane,

Yes, it’s obvious for me what should I do with that, but I don’t now how to use transform method for ELFileBody. Could you provide an example how to do it?

Hi again,

Meanwhile I found solution which is sufficient for my purposes:

`

import io.gatling.core.session._
import io.gatling.core.Predef._
import io.gatling.http.Predef._
import io.gatling.core.json.Jackson.TheObjectMapper

object Draft {

val Default = “data/default.json”

def toJsonString(str: String) = TheObjectMapper
.writeValueAsString(str)
.replace("\r\n","")
.replaceAll("\s+","")

val scn = scenario(“Draft”)

.exec(http(“Get sth”)
.get("/sth")
.check(status.is(OK),
bodyString

.transform(str => toJsonString(str))
.is(ELFileBody(Default).map(str => toJsonString(str)))
))
}

`

I transformed both expected result and response to Json string format. The only issue was whitespaces which were making files not comparable, so I removed all of them from both strings.
If anyone found any prettier way to solve this, please, share it here. Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Michał

HI, I have the same problem with you, even I copied the json string from the log, It also doesn’t work.
So I use your code but get error as below, it seems I don’t have the “TheObjectMapper” class. cloud you help me figure out. thank you
