How to validate for "[]" empty array

[fret...@gmail.com]

I am trying to validate response for the key A in below JSON  response

{
    "T": 1,
    "A": [
       
    ]
}

This is the code I am using

 

   
        given().
            contentType("application/json; charset=utf-8").
            body(requestFormat).
            expect().statusCode(200).
         when().
             post(baseURl).
         then().
             log().body().
             assertThat().body("T", equalTo(1)).
            assertThat().body("A",equalTo("[]"));

         

My tests always fails but I can't see any difference in the log

java.lang.AssertionError: JSON path A doesn't match.
Expected: []
  Actual: []

How do I check for  empty array for a certain key ?

Hi,

Use the "empty()" Hamcrest matcher:

.. then().body("A", empty());
