Question

I am running karate tests.
I am posting a request object and i recieve a response object . however in the response object i have one extra field populated .How will i handle the scenario ?
the following is my test
#NFRSubscription.feature
Feature: NFR Subscription API Tests
Background:
* url __arg.test_service.url
* configure ssl = false
* configure httpVersion = 'http2'
Scenario: Create/Patch/Delete NRF subscription by nfInstanceId subscription condition
* def subscriptionId = ''
* def createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdRequest = read('subscription/subscriptionCreateRequest.json')
* def patchSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdResponse = read('subscription/subscriptionPatchResponse.json')
* def createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdResponse = createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdRequest
# Create the NRF subscription by nfInstanceId
Given path '/nnrf-nfm/v1/subscriptions/'
And header Content-Type = 'application/json; charset=utf-8'
And print createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdRequest
And request createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdRequest
When method post
Then status 201
And match response == createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdResponse
And match response.subscriptionId == '#present'
And print response
the content of subscription/subscriptionCreateRequest.json is as follows.
{

}
the content of the file subscription/subscriptionPatchResponse.json is as follows.
{

],
"nrfSupportedFeatures": "CBAdEd1bef9B118EAd8d5bAfc66B59c1D292fD821d"
}
in the response I would expect a new field called subscriptionId .
my test fails at the moment with the following error .
16:00:57 com.intuit.karate.exception.KarateException: NFRSubscription.feature:24 - path: $, actual: {nfStatusNotificationUri=http://localhost:8080/ip/test, reqNfInstanceId=9c79364e-99e1-42a8-ada1-86c31ad1fa76, subscrCond={nfInstanceId=9c79364e-99e1-42a8-ada1-86c31ad1fa76}, subscriptionId=608425, validityTime=2022-02-18T10:15:15Z, reqNotifEvents=["NF_REGISTERED"], plmnId={mcc=454, mnc=93}, nid=2465aEB5ff1, notifCondition={monitoredAttributes=["testattri"]}, reqNfType=NRF, reqNfFqdn=com.openet.com, reqSnssais=[{"sst":10,"sd":"aA82a7"}], reqPlmnList=[{"mcc":"454","mnc":"93"}], reqSnpnList=[{"mcc":"454","mnc":"93"}], servingScope=["any string"], nrfSupportedFeatures=CBAdEd1bef9B118EAd8d5bAfc66B59c1D292fD821d}, expected: {nfStatusNotificationUri=http://localhost:8080/ip/test, reqNfInstanceId=9c79364e-99e1-42a8-ada1-86c31ad1fa76, subscrCond={nfInstanceId=9c79364e-99e1-42a8-ada1-86c31ad1fa76}, validityTime=2022-02-18T10:15:15Z, reqNotifEvents=["NF_REGISTERED"], plmnId={mcc=454, mnc=93}, nid=2465aEB5ff1, notifCondition={monitoredAttributes=["testattri"]}, reqNfType=NRF, reqNfFqdn=com.openet.com, reqSnssais=[{"sst":10,"sd":"aA82a7"}], reqPlmnList=[{"mcc":"454","mnc":"93"}], reqSnpnList=[{"mcc":"454","mnc":"93"}], servingScope=["any string"], nrfSupportedFeatures=CBAdEd1bef9B118EAd8d5bAfc66B59c1D292fD821d}, reason: actual value has 1 more key(s) than expected: {subscriptionId=608425}
any idea how should i formulate createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdResponse object to handle an extra dynamically generated field . in other words how can i do the following
add response.subscriptionId into createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdResponse and then compare response and
createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdResponse object .
And match response == createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdResponse

Answer 1

I have changed the test to add the subscriptionId field in the response object and then asserted it .
# Create the NRF subscription by nfInstanceId
Given path '/nnrf-nfm/v1/subscriptions/'
And header Content-Type = 'application/json; charset=utf-8'
And print createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdRequest
And request createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdRequest
When method post
Then status 201
And match response.subscriptionId == '#present'
And print response
And set createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdResponse.subscriptionId = response.subscriptionId
And match response == createSubscriptionByNfInstanceIdResponse
