Matchers
Matchers are for evaluating the response body/headers with the expected body/headers.
The below are the matchers available now and their purpose,
| Matcher Type | When to use |
|---|---|
| NOOP_MATCHER | When you don't have to do any match. |
| EXACT_MATCHER | When we have to ensure that the expected response is exactly same as the actual response. Though the order of values in JSON doesn't matter. |
| PARTIAL_MATCHER | Checks if all the values in the expected responses is available in the actual response. Any other extra fields in the actual response will be ignored. |
| SCHEMA_MATCHER | It evaluates if the actual api response matches with the Expected Json-Schema. Will match only for Json results with Response Content-Type : application/json. The Schema_matcher only supports schemas of Json-schema.org with specification of Draft 2019-09 other lower version drafts(draft-07,draft-06, so ..) are not supported |
