Dynamic JSON / XML Payloads

Welcome to our dynamic JSON feature documentation. We provide a way to create dynamic JSON using templating. In this guide, we'll discuss how you can use this feature to craft your test cases in a more flexible and dynamic manner.

Available Functions

We have several functions registered for use in your templates. These helpers provide powerful functionality for conditionally formatting your JSON data. Here is the list of available helpers:

• ifEq: This helper checks if two arguments are equal and executes the template if true.
• ifGreaterThan: This helper checks if the first argument is greater than the second argument.
• ifLessThan: This helper checks if the first argument is less than the second argument.
• ifNotEqualTo: This helper checks if two arguments are not equal.
• ifGreaterThanOrEqualTo: This helper checks if the first argument is greater than or equal to the second argument.
• ifLessThanOrEqualTo: This helper checks if the first argument is less than or equal to the second argument.
• range: This helper will iterate over a range of integers from the first argument to the second argument.

How to use the Functions

Here is a brief guide on how to use these helpers in your JSON templates:

Equals

This helper checks if two arguments are equal and executes the template if true.

{
  "tags": [
    {
      {{#ifEq "[Value1]" "[Value2]"}}
        "result": "Values are equal"
      {{else}}
        "result": "Values are not equal"
      {{/ifEq}}   
    }
  ]
}

Greater Than

This helper checks if the first argument is greater than the second argument:

{
  "tags": [
    {
      {{#ifGreaterThan "[Value1]" "[Value2]"}}
        "result": "Value1 is greater than Value2"
      {{else}}
        "result": "Value1 is not greater than Value2"
      {{/ifGreaterThan}}   
    }
  ]
}

Less Than

This helper checks if the first argument is less than the second argument:

{
  "tags": [
    {
      {{#ifLessThan "[Value1]" "[Value2]"}}
        "result": "Value1 is less than Value2"
      {{else}}
        "result": "Value1 is not less than Value2"
      {{/ifLessThan}}   
    }
  ]
}

Not Equal To

This helper checks if two arguments are not equal:

{
  "tags": [
    {
      {{#ifNotEqualTo "[Value1]" "[Value2]"}}
        "result": "Value1 is not equal to Value2"
      {{else}}
        "result": "Value1 is equal to Value2"
      {{/ifNotEqualTo}}   
    }
  ]
}

Greater Than or Equal To

This helper checks if the first argument is greater than or equal to the second argument:

{
  "tags": [
    {
      {{#ifGreaterThanOrEqualTo "[Value1]" "[Value2]"}}
        "result": "Value1 is greater than or equal to Value2"
      {{else}}
        "result": "Value1 is less than Value2"
      {{/ifGreaterThanOrEqualTo}}   
    }
  ]
}

Less Than or Equal To

This helper checks if the first argument is less than or equal to the second argument:

{
  "tags": [
    {
      {{#ifLessThanOrEqualTo "[Value1]" "[Value2]"}}
        "result": "Value1 is less than or equal to Value2"
      {{else}}
        "result": "Value1 is greater than Value2"
      {{/ifLessThanOrEqualTo}}   
    }
  ]
}

Range

This helper will iterate over a range of integers from the first argument to the second argument:

{
  "numbers": [
    {{#range 1 5}}
    {
      "number": {{this}}
    },
    {{/range}}
  ]
}

Please note: For the examples above, replace '[Value1]' and '[Value2]' with the actual values you want to compare. If these are variables within your context, ensure they are referenced correctly.
