Groovy - parse json: how to find certain “block” in json response with the goal of further parsing it












0















Pre-condition:
I'm testing REST in SoapUI tool.
I'm sending request, and in result
I have json response, which I want to parse with help of groovy code:



    {"List": [
{
"id": 1,
"data1": "xxx",
"data2": {
"node1": "1",
"node2": "4",
"node3": 1,
}
},
{
"id": 2,
"data1": "yyy",
"data2": {
"node1": "2",
"node2": "6",
"node3": 2,
}
},
{
"id": 3,
"data1": "zzz",
"data2": {
"node1": "2",
"node2": "6",
"node3": 2,
}
}
]}


Goal: I want to find certain block (e.g. that with "id" = 2), and continue to parse this block with the goal of further assertions.



E.g., I want to verify, that directly in the "block" with "id"=2, those node1/node2/node 3 are {2, 6, 2} correspondingly.



So, how to do it with groovy(in soapUI script step) ?

  • JsonSlurper can parse jsonstring to maps/arrays. After that it's just an iteration/find of elements...

  • Hi! sure, slurper seems to be suitable, but I stucked with finding Instance with certain id. Yes, we can find that "id = 2", but how to save that part of map, and only it?
