Hi Naveen, Really appreciate the efforts you are putting in making this videos...these are very helpful.... I have a doubt naveen....If you are working in some company how we get the url for the api testing..do the companies share that url...

[@priyankabonam]

[@praveenbiradar8468]

Hi Naveen Thanks for detailed Explanation you are fabulous i have one question in TestUtil.getValueByJPath () Method Why the 2nd parameter should preceded by "/" e,g " /total_pages" in getValueByJPath(responseJson,"/total_pages");

[@thediamondwings6451]

Perfect......guru 😘

[@sujatasinha6680]

Hi Naveen, i have learnt a lot from your videos.I faced some questions in the interview which i could not find answers, hope you will answer them. ques 1 - they asked how will i check the response, means though the response code is 200 but what if the response itself is blank, there is no point checking the tags as the response is not correct. 2nd ques - they asked any api can be consumed by both gui based applications and non-gui, basically differen types of applications, so as a tester when i get the response how will i test that which response tags or key-value pair for JSON response is for application 1, which part of response is for application 2 etc. i hope I am clear with the questions. thanks in advance.

[@MrArunkumardash]

how to validate the response if we have a long list of json array as response , do we have any easy way of doing sir ?

[@amolnawale2177]

Hi Naveen, In the getValueByJPath method, how can we get the size of the JSON Array. Is there anyway, I can create array of the common key elements say for e.g. String[] firstName OR String[] lastName and I can then iterate over these arrays to check for the expected firstName or lastName.

[@sanjaykumar-lv5qv]

Hi Naveen i have a doubt on karate jar used for web service testing.

[@snowbergstream1636]

[@amolnawale2177]

Hi Naveen, Can you please tell me how do we pass a "x-www-form-urlencoded" in the Body of the POST call instead of a JSON string? I have a requirement of creating an oAuth token which accepts the input in "x-www-form-urlencoded" format.

[@AnnasNitin]

I have a requirement in my project to validate the JSON response from API against the DB values. JSON response is huge (sometimes 3k lines) and query result is also sometimes more than 5 rows. JSON response also contains complex hierarchy (parent, child, grandchild nodes and so on). Can anyone suggest best way(s) to validate this kind of complex JSON structure against DB values?

[@nishachopra2786]

A good question ... Following

[@DeepakMishra-ql4gh]

Hi Naveen, Thank u for the great tutorials. I am facing 1 issue can u help me out Actually, I have to test Get Request API with a different set of Headers example: - different authID or token and after getting result I need to validate response JSON with respect to Headers how to achieve this, please help me out

[@schennalli]

Your videos are really helpful. Can you please make a video on parsing json string using jackson object mapper and asserting the same.

[@amolnawale2177]

Also, if we have an API call that returns a specific firstName or lastName and the JSON response is as below: { "data": { "last_name": Bleuth, "id": 123, "avatar": "www.xyz.com/abcd/pqrs.jpg", "first_name": "Janet" } } Then how do we get the array element say for e.g. first_name. I tried with the below code String firstnameValue = TestUtil.getValueByJPath(responseJson, "/data[0]/first_name"); But I am getting class cast exception as java.lang.ClassCastException: org.json.JSONObject cannot be cast to org.json.JSONArray

[@amolnawale2177]

hi Nisha, i moved to Rest Assured framework later on and it worked with that approach.

[@kevinxp919]
