total / count items from list json response

Question

im trying to get count / total number of records from list api using Restassured.

Please share thoughts on how can we get it.

ex:

{
    "final list": [
        {
            "id": 123,
            "name": "sachin"
        },
        {
            "id": 234,
            "name": "sourav"
        }
    ]
}

I am expecting total as 2 here. please suggest.

Solution 1

I got answer to my question.

here is the code for rest assured

expect().body("final_list.findall.size()",equalTo(2)).when().get("/list.json);

thanks

Solution 2

if you expect final_list to have 2 elements, you can use the hasSize() matcher:

expect().body("final_list", hasSize(2)).when().get("/list.json);

I found this in the list of matchers from the Matchers class Java doc:

http://hamcrest.org/JavaHamcrest/javadoc/1.3/org/hamcrest/Matchers.html#hasSize(org.hamcrest.Matcher)

Solution 3

Yo can do the following:

jp = new JsonPath(response.asString());
String numFromsResponse = jp.get("final list.id.size()").toString();

hi anand.. im verifying response data using junit and i wanted to test number of records in the list json response

a slightly simpler solution is: expect().body("final_list", hasSize(2)).when().get("/list.json);
