Validate JSON String using REGEX in JSONAssert java










-1















I am storing my expected json string in the json file under resources as shown below. The json string consists of regular expression. I am using JSONAssert Library to compare two json strings.




"timestamp": "^\d4-\d2-\d2T\d2:\d2:\d2.\d3+\d4$",
"status": 415,
"error": "Unsupported Media Type",
"message": "Content type 'text/plain;charset=ISO-8859-1' not supported",
"path": "/service/addUser"



My actual response consists of timestamp in this format 2018-11-13T04:10:11.233+0000



 JSONAssert.assertEquals(getJsonBody(expected), response.asString(),false);


Is always giving the below error on the regular expression



java.lang.AssertionError: timestamp
Expected: ^d4-d2-d2Td2:d2:d2.d3+d4$
got: 2018-11-13T04:12:55.923+0000


Any recommendation on this error?

    Your regular expression is incorrect - dot and plus have special meaning and must be escaped. Try ^d4-d2-d2Td2:d2:d2.d3+d4$

You are comparing the pattern with the timestamp string. What you actually need to do is check if the timestamp matches the pattern.



Try this code:-



String expected = "n" +
" "timestamp": "^\\d4-\\d2-\\d2T\\d2:\\d2:\\d2\\.\\d3\\+\\d4$",n" +
" "status": 415,n" +
" "error": "Unsupported Media Type",n" +
" "message": "Content type 'text/plain;charset=ISO-8859-1' not supported",n" +
" "path": "/service/addUser"n" +
"";
String actual = "n" +
" "timestamp": "2018-11-13T04:12:55.923+0000",n" +
" "status": 415,n" +
" "error": "Unsupported Media Type",n" +
" "message": "Content type 'text/plain;charset=ISO-8859-1' not supported",n" +
" "path": "/service/addUser"n" +
"";
JSONAssert.assertEquals(
expected,
actual,
new CustomComparator(
JSONCompareMode.LENIENT,
new Customization("***", new RegularExpressionValueMatcher<>())
)
);


So with your code, it will look something like:-



JSONAssert.assertEquals(
getJsonBody(expected),
response.asString(),
new CustomComparator(
JSONCompareMode.LENIENT,
new Customization("***", new RegularExpressionValueMatcher<>())
)
);
