Hi,

Hmm it seems strange. Could you log everything in REST Assured (expect.log().everything()...) and paste how the response looks like?

Regards,

Hi,

It seems that Response.getDetailedCookie("name") always returns null, while Response.getCookie("name") does return the value (proving that the named cookie is present).

Am I misunderstanding the getDetailedCookie method, or is this a bug?

Thanks,
Tom

Sure:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server=Apache-Coyote/1.1
Set-Cookie=JSESSIONID=B3134D534F40968A3805968207273EF5; Path=/
P3P=CP="NON"
Pragma=No-cache
Cache-Control=no-cache, no-store
Expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT
Vary=*
Content-Type=text/html;charset=UTF-8
Transfer-Encoding=chunked
Date=Tue, 16 Apr 2013 20:11:21 GMT

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en">
...lots more html...

Then, the result of the following calls

System.out.println(response.getCookie("JSESSIONID"));
System.out.println(response.getDetailedCookie("JSESSIONID"));

is

B3134D534F40968A3805968207273EF5
null

I'm using rest-assured 1.8.0

Do you have the source code of REST Assured? In that case look at the implementation of the getDetailedCookie(..) method :) (it actually returns null which shows that sometimes you need tests even for the most trivial of things). I've fixed this and committed a new snapshot release to sonatype. If you're using maven depend on version 1.8.1-SNAPSHOT after having added the following Maven repo in your pom:

<id>sonatype</id>

<url>https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/</url>

</repository>

</repositories>

A work-around would be to Response.getDetailedCookies().get("jsessionid"); Yet another work-around would be to use Response.getSessionId(); .

Ha, that's great. I was already using a workaround -- it's not a big issue. I'm glad that I was able to help you improving your library a little bit. Keep up the excellent work; rest-assured is truly a wonderful library!

Thanks,

Tom
