Not sure if this is a false positive

I am sure that {'bar': 0, 'foo': 123} does not occur in the response. So I was expecting the test to fail because of the validation.

Am I doing something wrong?

This very simple GET test fails in Windows10 (Python 2.7.15) but it works with Ubuntu 16.04 (Python 2.7.12).
Fails in Windows with SchemaGenerationError: Could not find matching type for object: 1536489510350L

Test was run in virtualenv in both systems and following packages were only installed by pip:

• RESTinstance
• robotframework

Test uses Liikennevirasto's open api to get the vessel location --> Can be easily tested with Curl or with browser:
curl -X GET --header 'Accept: application/json' 'https://meri.digitraffic.fi/api/v1/locations/latest/230629000'

Test case:

*** Settings ***
Library           REST    https://meri.digitraffic.fi

*** Test Cases ***
Get
    Set Headers    {"Accept":"application/json;charset=UTF-8","User-Agent":"curl/7.47.0"}
    REST.Get    /api/v1/locations/latest/230181000    validate=true

Hi @asyrjasalo
At work i am currently facing some problems with your library. I found out after a post request to our internal rest interface a 200 OK was responded with an empty body { }. This is of course also a defect on our side but leads to an error in robotframework:

KeyError: u'properties'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Anaconda3\envs\py2_automation\lib\site-packages\REST\keywords.py", line 404, in post
return self._request(endpoint, request, validate)['response']
File "C:\Anaconda3\envs\py2_automation\lib\site-packages\REST\keywords.py", line 1229, in _request
instance = self._instantiate(request, response, validate)
File "C:\Anaconda3\envs\py2_automation\lib\site-packages\REST\keywords.py", line 1257, in _instantiate
self._add_defaults_to_schema(schema, response)
File "C:\Anaconda3\envs\py2_automation\lib\site-packages\REST\keywords.py", line 1293, in _add_defaults_to_schema
self._add_property_defaults(body, schema['properties'])

I changed the code locally to test if this is working,..

in keywords.py, line 1289

def _add_defaults_to_schema(self, schema, response):
    body = response['body']
    schema = schema['properties']['response']['properties']['body']
    if isinstance(body, (dict)):
        self._add_property_defaults(body, schema['properties'])

this was changed to

def _add_defaults_to_schema(self, schema, response):
    body = response['body']
    schema = schema['properties']['response']['properties']['body']
    # also check if dictionary is empty
    if isinstance(body, (dict)) and not bool(dict):
        self._add_property_defaults(body, schema['properties'])

in case of empty body.

How do you think about it?

I looked at the code and it seems impossible to use Delete with a body:

def delete(self, endpoint, timeout=None, allow_redirects=None, validate=True):

With odata-based services, it is common to have endpoints with the following character:

/entity('A123')

I have made swagger documentation for this endpoint, but RESTinstance gives an incorrect error that this path is not found:

test                                                                | FAIL |
u'request':
    - 'path':
        - "No paths found for /entity('A123')"

I am under the impression that this has to do with the fact that the endpoint contains parentheses.

Here follows an example to reproduce this problem:

Adding a support for loading YAML files for openapi/swagger spec would be a nice enhancement.

fails and it is expected if the test docker images (mountrest... )are not also launched but this is not clear in the readme.

I get error below when I try to run the default tests.

Hi Team,
I am exploring RESTinstance, no prior experience in API test using Robot Framework so facing problem to get response i.e. authentication key and get other response and store in a variable.

Below is my dummy code .. it is not confidential:

*** Settings ***
Library         REST      https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.in/
Suite Setup     Set Expectations

*** Keywords ***
Set Expectations
    Expect response     {"status":{"enum":[200, 201, 204, 401,405, 500]}}
    Expect response     {"seconds":{"maximum":1.5}}
*** Variables ***
${json}         { "email": "[email protected]",   "password": "password" }

*** Test Cases ***
POST with valid params to create a user
    POST        /api-token-auth/          ${json}
    Integer     response status           200
    #[Teardown]  Output                    file_path=${OUTPUTDIR}/inst.json
    Output      response body   

Can you please help correct me, as I am not understanding how to implement.

and one more thing, I want to get a response from one request and from that response few information need to pass on to another request body. How can I do that?

... I know this libary is for JSON API ... but anyway ... you can't image what people use it for 😆

Can "the scanner" be turned off by some option switch?

I'm going to parse the requests as well as inputted json file to compare the content.

Thanks,

When attempting to use the POST keyword to authenticate into an endpoint that doesn't have the same domain certificate, I am unable to disable the SSL validation for a successful login. I've tried to use POST without validate=False, but that fails with the domain error. Please advise.

What I wonder most is why does response complain about

"error_description": "Missing form parameter: grant_type"
I have defined grant_type: {"grant_type": "password", ... }

I also tried setting headers and ssl_verify=false ... without success

What am I missing? Please point me in the right direction :)

Hi,

I noticed I'm unable to add this library to my project via pipenv due to 'incompatible versions in the resolved dependencies' pipenv error.
This happens because some library vendors sticks to strict versions in their requirements.txt file like this:

requests==2.20.0
requests-oauthlib==1.0.0

Therefore if one library needs requests==2.20.0 while another library needs requests==2.12.4 then pipenv would be unable to satisfy those conditions.

Could we have a more relaxed versions specification, like the next example?

requests>=2.20.0

The same goes for other libraries within requirements.txt.

Thanks.

Hello,
I am trying to write a test step as follows:
Object $.request.body.data.attributes.participants required=["phone_number","name","email"]
I have also tried:
Object $.data.attributes.participants required=[“phone_number”,”name”,”email”]

The body data from Output is:

{
    "request": {
        "body": {
            "data": {
                "attributes": {
                    "participants": [
                        {
                            "phone_number": "5554447777",
                            "name": "QA Tester",
                            "email": "[email protected]"
                        }
                    ],
                    "name": "Manual Test Room"
                },
                "type": "room"
            }
        },
        ....

I cannot understand why it is not finding the JSON path. The error is:

JSONPath query '$.request.body.data.attributes.participants' did not match anything.

This doesn't seem to be correct, as the path is clearly present. Can you take a look and let me know if I am missing something, or if this is a bug?

I'm working against a server with a self-signed certificate in a DEV environment. How do I keep the test from failing for this reason? An additional example with this would be good. Also one specifying headers.

GET to https://hidden.com/pathto SSL certificate verify failed:
HTTPSConnectionPool(host='hidden.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /pathto (Caused by SSLError(SSLError(1, u'[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:726)'),))

The Output Schema keyword does not work as documented.

Expected usage:

Output Schema    response body

Result: No keyword with name 'Output Schema' found

The next one works - is not what is in documentation, though.

Output    response body
Output    schema response
Output    schema response body

Result:

response body as JSON is:
"Hello World"
.

schema response as JSON is:
{
    "body": {
        "type": "string"
    }
}
.

schema response body as JSON is:
{
    "type": "string"
}

Hi,

My api post use Parameters to send data, but post keyword not have the argument, so I need to add all the params to the endpoint.

Are there plans to distribute a release version of this package? Since only pre-release versions are available, I am currently forced to allow pre-release installs in our Pipfile which causes some issues.

The underlying request library supports the use of sessions.
Do you think it would be feasible to provide a session parameter to the library?

1. input spec file could not same as the code logic , so input spec is not essential!

eg: if i modify the spec file content , but api respone the correct fromat ,
the spec content only use in output instance file before request and respone josn node ,
but they not corresponding!!!

In the following robot tests, ${A} is correct, But ${B} occurs an error.

`*** Settings ***
Library REST https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com

*** Test Cases ***
JSONPath query condition
${resp}= GET /users?_limit=4
${body}= Object $[0]
${A}= Object $[?(@.id<3)]
${B}= Object $[?(@.name='Leanne Graham')]`

Hi, I'm testing this extension on my REST API where, as REST, supports many representations for the same resource, for POST and GET.

I was testing with other formats than JSON for POST and it seems the library is not processing them correctly.

Is this library JSON only?

For content type - application/x-www-form-urlencoded, it always says "Missing grant_type parameter value"

Do we have any way to post "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" content types.

{"Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded}
grant_type=password&username=test%40test.com&password=test%40018&scope=openid&tenantDomain=test.com

Output:
{
"error_description": "Missing grant_type parameter value",
"error": "invalid_request"
}

Please suggest

I am unable to set a specific port number in the URL without getting an error. I'm not very familiar with the new library, and this might not be the correct way of calling it either. Please advise on what I should do, or if this is a feature you'd like to support. Thanks!

Error below, example url
InvalidURL: Failed to parse: "example.com:8000" schema={ "exampled": false }

Library         REST       url="example.com:8000" schema={ "exampled": false }

Hi, I dig into to the documentation and source code and I don't see any option to do basic authentication like this:

http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/user/authentication/#basic-authentication

Thanks!

P.S: At the present time I put the credentials in the Library REST import like this:
Library REST http://${USER}:{PASS}@${URL}:${PORT}

This is not an issue, but more a question
When we use the Set Headers Keyword, should we set them as a Dictionary? Please let me know

Hi,

Does REST support POST with Content-Type/x-www-form-urlencoded and encoded data?

*** Settings ***
Library REST https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com

*** Test Cases ***
JSONPath query from object
GET /users/1
${root}= Object $
${o_lng}= String $.address.geo.lng
${lng}= Set Variable ${o_lng[0]}
${somegeo}= Object $.address.geo[?(@.lng\='${lng}')]

• Improve keyword documentation regarding arguments
• Embed an example covering the library features, and as a tutorial, to README.rst
• Host keyword documentation on GitHub (project) pages - https://asyrjasalo.github.io/RESTinstance

I was trying to store the result from the String keyword in a variable for further usage before I realized that it returns a list. I think it's not a real issue but it's not obvious that it returns a list without looking at the code of the keyword's implementation. Just want to share my experience in case somebody runs into it, too - and for my future me in case I run into it again 🤣

Example:

REST.Post    /something    ${body}
Integer    response status    200
String     response body idToken
${token}=    String    response body idToken
Log To Console    ${token}

# console output
.['eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImt ... ']

${token} contains some characters which I did not expected to be there: [' ... ']

Now that I know that String returns a list here is how the above should be done right

@{token}=    String    response body idToken
Log To Console    @{token}
Log To Console    @{token}[0]

Store the result in a list variable @{token} and access the value at index 0 --> @{token}[0] then I get what I actually wanted: eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImt... - the token as a string.

Cheers

Hi,

Is it possible to add Get Field Value keyword to library?
Sometimes I need to exact some filed value from the previous request to test the current request.
Thanks!

Hi,
Getting "SchemaGenerationError: Could not find matching type for object: 1549286611000L" for most of my GET and POST call. Observed when JSON response is large. Also, same call executed successfully via POSTMAN and REST-ASSURED.
System details :
OS : Windows 10

Pygments==2.2.0
wxPython= 2.8 (32 bit)

I saw same issue has closed without much details #37. So appreciate your help on this.

hello, can you add example testcases for working with responses? i have a problem when i want to work with body response. thank you. i really appreciate your work.

Hello I am not sure if I am running into an issue or If my understanding is incorrect about the Expect Response keyword.

I am trying to do a simple up check on a service. For example, if I do a GET on http://helloworld.com/up
I would get an JSON like this {"version":"v1.0","status":"OK"}

I have this JSON schema that should validate this response
{
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/schema#",
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"version": {
"type": "string"
},
"status": {
"type": "string"
}
},
"required": [
"status",
"version"
]
}

What I had tried to do is to use Expect Response keyword in Test Setup to set the schema above. And then use GET http://helloworld.com/up. But I keep getting and KeyError:"$schema".

Again, I am not sure if this is the right place to ask but I had been looking at this for a couple days and I really bugs me. Thank you.

I want to fetch data e.g. below Robot script
String response body entries[0] API Bhagavad Gita

Is there some reason that RC1 doesn't have anymore 'Expect Spec' keyword?

TL;DR the POST keyword eventually calls request.request using json= parameter for the body. Yet for XML the body is not in JSON format.

Detailed explanation of what I think is root cause along with sample code can be found here

Robot file to recreate issue:

*** Settings ***
Library    REST

*** Variables ***
${SERVER_URL}    https://www.w3schools.com/xml/tempconvert.asmx

*** Test Cases ***

    ${resp}=    POST    ${SERVER_URL}    data=${body}
    Log    ${resp}  repr=true

Python code to prove endpoint works with Sample POST:

import requests

url = "https://www.w3schools.com/xml/tempconvert.asmx"

payload = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><soap:Body><FahrenheitToCelsius xmlns="https://www.w3schools.com/xml/"><Fahrenheit>100</Fahrenheit></FahrenheitToCelsius></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>'
headers = {
    'SOAPAction': "\"https://www.w3schools.com/xml/FahrenheitToCelsius\"",
    'Content-Type': "text/xml",
    'Cache-Control': "no-cache",
    }

response = requests.request("POST", url, data=payload, headers=headers)

print(response.text)

i test your e.g ,but error ::

1.FAIL : No keyword with name 'DELETE' found;
2.how to import "Resource resources/mounterest.robot"
3.what is that mean ? "Library REST mounterest:${api_port}/" what is mounterest????
4.how to relate the swagger file?

thank you !

Note that the GenSON Python API has changed since 0.2.3.

Hi,

My problem is on my request server is using Kerberos authentication.

I tried to do | | Set Headers | { "Authorization" : "Negotiate"} |
Was trying to do something similar like what was successfully run using curl curl --negotiate -u : -X GET "url"

Searched around the documentation and didn't find any solution/documentation regarding this item

By using curl --negotiate -u : verbose,
I can see:

curl send request and return response is 401, www-authenticate: negotiate
curl send request with "Authorization" : "Negotiate {$kerberostoken}" and return response 200, with body result

Am I right in thinking the ssl certificate verification is disabled by default?

In keywords.py

if not request['sslVerify']: disable_warnings()

I was attempting to log in to a SUT with a self signed cert and the RESTinstance library using the following:

REST.Post ${api_login} { "username": "${temp_username}", "password": "${temp_password}" }

But am seeing the following error:

SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='192.168.n.n', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /login (Caused by SSLError(SSLError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:777)'),))

Clear Expectations was removed, what is the replacement? This broke a lot of our tests.

Hi

I've a third party so called API poorly made to say the least. Would you be kind enought to provide an example about how to do multipart post ? I generated this python request snippet using my REST client (Insomnia), but I can't transcript it properly to robot / RESTinstance.

import requests

url = "http://192.168.60.10/api/index.php"

payload = "-----011000010111000001101001\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"username\"\r\n\r\nadmin"
headers = {'content-type': 'multipart/form-data; boundary=---011000010111000001101001'}

response = requests.request("POST", url, data=payload, headers=headers)

print(response.text)

Thanks & regards,

I have a test suite where I have example

*** Settings ***
Test Setup          Expect spec                     API_spec.json

*** Test Cases ***
example case 1
        GET     api_query_to_path

example case 2
        GET   api_query_to_path
       Clear Expectations
       GET   query_that_path_doesn't_found from_spec

example case 3
      Expect Spec     spec={}   replace=true
       GET   query_that_path_doesn't_found from_spec

Case 1 and 3 PASS

Case 2 gives FAIL
u'request':
- 'path':
- 'No paths found for path_that_doesn't_exist'

Question?
Should 'Clear Expectations' to do same as 'Expect Spec spec={} replace=true' does ?

Thanks for offering the nice Docker image.

I have been searching ... what does the extra parameter mean?
Whatever I try, I get 'data source not found'. Please help.

For example, I try this:

docker run -v ...jenkins-functionaltest-controllers/functional-testing-controllers/results:/opt/robotframework/reports -v .../jenkins-functionaltest-controllers/functional-testing-controllers/tests:/opt/robotframework/tests --network=myrestnetwork -e ROBOT_OPTIONS=--nostatusrc asyrjasalo/restinstance ControllersTest.robot
