Method Details

isEmpty

EntityExchangeResult<Void> isEmpty()

Assert the response body is empty and return the exchange result.

json

WebTestClient.BodyContentSpec json(String expectedJson)

Parse the expected and actual response content as JSON and perform a "lenient" comparison verifying the same attribute-value pairs.

Use of this option requires the JSONassert library on to be on the classpath.

Parameters:

expectedJson - the expected JSON content.

xml

WebTestClient.BodyContentSpec xml(String expectedXml)

Parse expected and actual response content as XML and assert that the two are "similar", i.e. they contain the same elements and attributes regardless of order.

Use of this method requires the XMLUnit library on the classpath.

Parameters:

expectedXml - the expected JSON content.

Since:

5.1

• XmlExpectationsHelper.assertXmlEqual(String, String)

jsonPath

JsonPathAssertions jsonPath(String expression,
 Object... args)

Access to response body assertions using a JsonPath expression to inspect a specific subset of the body.

The JSON path expression can be a parameterized string using formatting specifiers as defined in String.format(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object...).

Parameters:

expression - the JsonPath expression

args - arguments to parameterize the expression

xpath

default XpathAssertions xpath(String expression,
 Object... args)

Access to response body assertions using an XPath expression to inspect a specific subset of the body.

The XPath expression can be a parameterized string using formatting specifiers as defined in String.format(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object...).

Parameters:

expression - the XPath expression

args - arguments to parameterize the expression

Since:

5.1

• xpath(String, Map, Object...)

xpath

XpathAssertions xpath(String expression,
 @Nullable
 Map<String,String> namespaces,
 Object... args)

Access to response body assertions with specific namespaces using an XPath expression to inspect a specific subset of the body.

The XPath expression can be a parameterized string using formatting specifiers as defined in String.format(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object...).

Parameters:

expression - the XPath expression

namespaces - the namespaces to use

args - arguments to parameterize the expression

Since:

5.1

consumeWith

WebTestClient.BodyContentSpec consumeWith(Consumer<EntityExchangeResult<byte[]>> consumer)

Assert the response body content with the given Consumer.

Parameters:

consumer - the consumer for the response body; the input byte[] may be null if there was no response body.

returnResult

EntityExchangeResult<byte[]> returnResult()

Exit the chained API and return an ExchangeResult with the raw response content.
