Store the initial request somewhere

[sshishov]

Hi dear developers, I would like to ask how we can access the initial request was made for the caught response?

In the beginning I was thinking that we can access it thought .request somehow...

rsp = responses.add(method=responses.POST, url='https://example.com/, body='my body content)
...
assert 'some data' in rsp.request.text

The question is... how we can assert that the request was done with some specific parameters. I know that there are matchers there but it does not look great to inject some matchers, especially for content inside the responses mock.

I would like to assert them separately...

Overall, we attach the initial request to a response

Hi @beliaev-maksim ,

Could you please show me how I can access it? Please note that the flow is the following:

• call some API-1
• API-1 through the code internally calls API-2 which we are mocking in the responses
• API-2 returns some response to the code
• the code continue execution and eventually returns to the place where API-1 was called (test)

Now inside the test I have only API-1 response which is completely different from one which I want to assert. I want to assert that through the flow the API-2 was called with specific body...

Thanks you for the help!

In such case the best would be to use matchers

But you can explore the CallList object which stores calls history
