Multiple Mappings to the Same URL

[simon.sjc...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I am running wiremock 1.55 in standalone mode to try and mock a SOAP service.  I am trying to mock 2 soap operations which map to the same URL but have different SOAP request structures.  I have created corresponding mapping files and via the admin page I can see that these have been deployed successfully and the mappings have been applied:

{

• mappings: 

  [

  • {

    • request: 

      {

      • urlPath: "/MCEOfferManagement",
      • method: "POST",
      • bodyPatterns: 

        [

        • {

          • matchesXPath: "/*[local-name()='Envelope']/*[local-name()='Body']/*[local-name()='CheckEligiblilityRequest']"

          }

        ]

      },
    • response: 

      {

      • status: 200,
      • body: "
      • "Ommitted due to size of body"
      }
      • "

      }

    },
  • {

    • request: 

      {

      • urlPath: "/MCEOfferManagement",
      • method: "POST",
      • bodyPatterns: 

        [

        • {

          • matchesXPath: "/*[local-name()='Envelope']/*[local-name()='Body']/*[local-name()='GetCurrentPlanRequest']"

          }

        ]

      },
    • response: 

      {

      • status: 200,
      • body: "Ommitted due to size of body"

      }

    }

  ]

}

When I send requests, wiremock only maps successfully to the 1st mapping defined, the 2nd mapping doesn't ever match even when I supply a SOAP body which matches the configured XPath.  The XPath configuration is correct as it maps successfully when I am running wiremock within junit.

Is it possible to have 2 mappings which match the same URL but differ on bodyPattern?  If so can you please tell me where I am going wrong?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

What you're attempting is definitely possible and you're on the right track here.

I find XPaths with namespaced XML to be quite tricky. WireMock uses XMLUnit's XPath evaluator internally, so I'd suggest writing a unit test directly against that, passing in the SOAP body you're testing with.

Hi Tom,

Many thanks for your response.  I have written unit tests and they work fine as per your suggestion.

I have ran wiremock standalone in verbose mode and can see the following log statement when it cannot match my request:

URL /MCEOfferManagement is match, but body is not

If I then copy the XML body that is written to the log and paste it into web client such as Postman and make the request it matches successfully.  I am really confused about this!

Any ideas why Wiremock is not recognising it as a match in one instance but it does in another?  Is there anything I should be looking for?

Thanks

Simon

I'd hazard a guess that it might be to do with differing character sets from different clients.

When I have a problem like this I generally run tcpdump to view the raw requests. That way I can see an unbiased view of the requests coming from both sources and hopefully spot any differences.

Hi @Tom Akehurst 

I tried in the same way in which simon mentioned above. 

{

    "mappings":

    [

        {

            "request": {

                "url": "/soaptest",

                "method": "POST",

                "bodyPatterns" : [

                    {

                        "matchesXPath" : "SOAP-ENV:Envelope/SOAP-ENV:Body/report:GetReportXml//report:First[text()='test']",

                        "xPathNamespaces" : {

                            "SOAP-ENV" : "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/",

                            "report" : "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"

                        }

                    }

                ]

            },

            "response":

            {

                "status": 200,

                "headers":

                {

                    "Content-Type" : "application/json"

                },

                "bodyFileName": "sayhello.xml"

            }

        },

        {

            "request": {

                "url": "/soaptest",

                "method": "POST",

                "bodyPatterns" : [

                    {

                        "matchesXPath" : "SOAP-ENV:Envelope/SOAP-ENV:Body/report:GetReportXml//report:Surname[text()='JOSEPH']",

                        "xPathNamespaces" : {

                            "SOAP-ENV" : "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/",

                            "report" : "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"

                        }

                    }

                ]

            },

            "response":

            {

                "status": 200,

                "headers":

                {

                    "Content-Type" : "application/json"

                },

                "bodyFileName": "sayhello.xml"

            }

        }

    ]

}

But I am getting below error.

Exception in thread "main" wiremock.com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.UnrecognizedPropertyException: Unrecognized field "mappings" (class com.github.tomakehurst.wiremock.stubbing.StubMapping), not marked as ignorable (11 known properties: "response", "requiredScenarioState", "priority", "persistent", "id", "postServeActions", "request", "newScenarioState", "name", "uuid", "scenarioName"])

Did I make any mistake?

[Pallavi]

I am using wiremock 2.6.0.

While running the jar itself (java -jar wiremock-standalone-2.6.0.jar) I am getting that error.

[Tom Akehurst]

You can't post multiple mappings at once at the moment. You need to post them individually and the request and response keys must be in the top-level object.

[Pallavi]

Thanks for the quick response Tom.

I have tried this with wiremock version 1.55 (mentioned by Simon). I didn't get that error. 

Means is that feature removed in next versions?

[Tom Akehurst]

No, it was never a feature in the first place. Now I'm confused.
