Response Content

Checks whether or not the server response contains a certain content. The server response is considered valid if all the content conditions are satisfied.

Depending on the type of HTTP response, the validation can be based:

• On whole response: The validation check will be carried out on the HTTP responses headers and body. This is the default option.
• On a particular node: The validation check will be carried out on one of the nodes in the response body. This node is defined using XPath or JSONPath expressions. This option is available for XML and JSON responses, which includes HTML, XHTML, SOAP, GWT, Adobe Flex/AMF, Oracle Forms, Java Serialization, RTMP, Siebel responses, etc. A click on the facing list box allows selecting the required format.

Conditions available are:

• contains: Checks if the body of the server response contains the specified text (example: <span class="welcome">Welcome</span>).
• contains regular expression: Checks if the body of the server response contains the specified regular expression (example: <span class="welcome">Welcome \w+ \w+ </span>).

Note that the content assertion may contain variables.
