How to read data from one feature file table and pass the value to set json parameter in a *.json file in karate?
Question
Feature File 1:inputData.feature
@ignore
Feature: Input data table
Scenario: Input table for testing
* table testData
| accountId | accountname | expectedAccount |
| 'ADS5678543' | 'Peter' | 'DFCVSAEFRG' |
| 'ASDCF45678' | 'Caroline' | 'DFCWEAEFRG' |
File 2: payload.json
{
"channelData": {
"data": "CHANNEL_DATA",
"salesChannel": "WEB",
"createdBy": "WEBSITE",
"accountId": "#(accountId)",
"sessionId": "#(accountname)"
}
}
File 3: Request.feature
@ignore
Feature:
Scenario:
# read the payload from json file
* def Request = read('../payload.json')
* def headersData = { "Content-Type" : "application/json"}
Given url BaseUrl + '/account/'+'#(accountId)'
And request Request
And headers headersData
When method post
Then status 200
* print response
* def account = karate.jsonPath(response, "$.account")
* print 'account is '+account
Then match account == '#(expectedAccount)'
File4: Account-token.feature
Feature:
Scenario: identify the reference account
* def initTestData = read('../inputData.feature')
* def reqRes = karate.call('../Request.feature', { initTestData : initTestData })
* def temp = $reqRes[*].account
* def resAccount = temp[0]
In the above scenario values are not passed successfully in JSON Request.: 1.) We need to read the accountId & accountname value from inputData.feature, and update the payload.json parameters. 2.) also we to pass the expectedAccount value to Request.feature for assertion.

Try
* def initTestData = call read('../inputData.feature')
* def reqRes = call read('../Request.feature') initTestData.testData

You can make it simpler by using qaf web service support . In that case BDD file may look like below:
Feature: Input data table
Scenario: Input table for testing
Given user requests "my.sample.reqwithbody1" with data "${args[0]}"
Then response should have status code 200
And response should have "${expectedAccount}" at "$.account"
And say "resAccount" is value at jsonpath "$.account"
Examples:
| accountId | accountname | expectedAccount |
| 'ADS5678543' | 'Peter' | 'DFCVSAEFRG' |
| 'ASDCF45678' | 'Caroline' | 'DFCWEAEFRG' |
Where my.sample.reqwithbody1 is request call and request call details can be in request call repository that can be reused and may read as below:
<my>
<sample>
<reqwithbody1>
<endPoint>/account/${accountId}</endPoint>
<headers>
{'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
</headers>
<method>POST</method>
<body>file:resources/data/payload.json</body>
</reqwithbody1>
</sample>
</my>
Your payload json file can be as below(You also can provide below file content directly in body):
{
"channelData": {
"data": "CHANNEL_DATA",
"salesChannel": "WEB",
"createdBy": "WEBSITE",
"accountId": "${accountId}",
"sessionId": "${accountname}"
}
}
