Karate- get value of a field from response in another feature file

Question

I have a scenario where i need to get a specific field from a response of another feature file and re-use it.

Scenario:- Feature file A deals with POST where i get a response and save the field userId in a variable myuser.
Sample response:- { user:"123" tier:"diamond" }

i save the value as *def myuser =response.user

I want to call feature file A from another feature file B. I do not want to pass any parameter to feature file A. My code looks like

• def ReponseA = read('classpath:FeaturefileA.feature')
• def currentuser =ResponseA.user

This might be incorrect.My basic need is to get the myuser value from Feature file A to a variable in Feature file B and use in sceanrios for feature file B.Kindly advise. Thank you.

Answer 1

(a.feature) Feature file A: POST Method which gives you response as follows:

{ user:"123" tier:"diamond" }

(b.feature) Feature file B:

 * def fileA = call read('../FOLDER NAME/a.feature')
 * def fileAResponse = fileA.response
 * print fileAResponse

the above code in b.feature will print the response of a.feature

Hope this is what you want?
