How to convert ELFileBody("some.xml") to something equivalent to RawFileBodyPart?

Gatling (Open-Source)

Hi All

I am pretty new to Scala.

I am actually currently writing the gatling load script to perform some tests.

In my script, this works for our backend URL:

      .post("our_url")
      .bodyPart(RawFileBodyPart("A_VALID_FILE"))
      .check(
        status.is(200),
        regex("<code>I0008</code").exists
      ))

And I am trying to do this and it is not working:

      .post("our_url")
      .bodyPart(ELFileBody("A_XML_TEMPLATE"))
      .check(
        status.is(200),
        regex("<code>I0008</code").exists
      ))

How can I switch ELFileBody to be similar to RawFileBodyPart for my scenario?

Thanks for any help.

XXXBody => full body
XXXBodyPart => multipart part

So what you want is not ELFileBody but… http://gatling.io/docs/2.1.3/http/http_request.html#multipart-request

Hi All

This snippet is also not working for my case:


.post("our_url")
.bodyPart(ELFileBodyPart("A_XML_TEMPLATE"))
.check(
status.is(200),
regex("<code>I0008</code").exists
))

In the backend, the struts actions is actually doing this:

InputStream inputStream = ServletActionContext.getRequest().getInputStream();

For those who struggled like me:

Here is the final code which can be accepted by

InputStream inputStream = ServletActionContext.getRequest().getInputStream();

The final code:

      .post("A_STRUTS_ACTION.do")
      .body(ELFileBody("THE_XML_FILE"))
      .check(
        status.is(200),
        regex("<code>I0008</code").exists
      ).asMultipartForm)

Basically, Struts expects a multipart/form-data Content-Type in order to trigger this code branch.
