I am testing a public API that lists all types of breeds.

'https://dog.ceo/api/breeds/list/all'

Within the response I need to verify if "retriever" breed is within the list. My feature file looks like this

Feature: Testing a REST API

Scenario: Testing valid GET endpoint

Given url 'https://dog.ceo/api/breeds/list/all'

When method GET

Then status 200

And print response

And match response.message contains 'retriever'

However I get the following error:

com.intuit.karate.exception.KarateException: path: $.message, actual:

vizsla=, weimaraner=, whippet=, wolfhound=["irish"]}, expected:
'retriever', reason: actual value is not a string

Look at the response structure carefully. These will work:

And match response.message contains { retriever: '#array' }

And match response.message.retriever == ['chesapeake', 'curly', 'flatcoated', 'golden']

Do read the documentation and examples.
