taurus POST url test with list in body

[Raul Cuth]

I have to test some POST requests for an API that has a list of an object as a parameter(List<MyObject>).

I would like to know if there is a way to have a list in the body, because, for now i get the error(Cannot handle 'body' option of type list).

Thank you all for your help.

Hi,

Can you show an example of config you're trying to use?

Hi Andrey,

I'm very new to this taurus testing and i don't have any configuration. I just created the .yml file with a scenario and i am trying to test an url and run it with the bzt command

scenarios:
  insert-for-user:
    requests:
      - url: http://localhost:8991/api/endpoint
        method: POST
        body:
          - userId: 101qwerty123
            attrName: testattribute
        headers:
          Content-Type: application/json

I also tried with JSON instead of yaml syntax in the body like: [{object}]

Thank you for your help.

Ok, help me to understand what do you expect to be sent to server for this situation? Which string should be sent as body?

For example i need to send a list of JSON objects: [{"userId":"1234","attrName":"name"},{"userId":"321","attrName":"anothername"}]

[Andrey Pokhilko]

So for workaround of a problem you can set string body now like this:

body: "[{\"userId\":\"1234\",\"attrName\":\"name\"},{\"userId\":\"321\",\"attrName\":\"anothername\"}]"

Meanwhile, we'll update the code to handle JSON arrays like you expect it. It will be part of next release 1.8.1
