Multipart and regex

[danidemi]

Hi.

I'm getting this exception following an assertion.

java.lang.AssertionError: Request not found exactly once, expected:<{
  "method" : "POST",
  "body" : {
    "type" : "REGEX",
    "value" : "XMLSIP"
  }
}> but was:<{
  "method" : "POST",
  "path" : "/",
  "body" : "--_Ts2FnAsKewlbhGOMZZ0hpCevvSIMOfq4Wf6\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"VERSIONE\"\r\n\r\nversione\r\n--_Ts2FnAsKewlbhGOMZZ0hpCevvSIMOfq4Wf6\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"LOGINNAME \"\r\n\r\nlogin\r\n--_Ts2FnAsKewlbhGOMZZ0hpCevvSIMOfq4Wf6\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"PASSWORD \"\r\n\r\npassword\r\n--_Ts2FnAsKewlbhGOMZZ0hpCevvSIMOfq4Wf6\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"XMLSIP\"\r\n\r\n<xml>\r\n--_Ts2FnAsKewlbhGOMZZ0hpCevvSIMOfq4Wf6\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"ID1\"; filename=\"filename\"\r\nContent-Type: application/octet-stream\r\n\r\n\r\n--_Ts2FnAsKewlbhGOMZZ0hpCevvSIMOfq4Wf6--\r\n",
  "headers" : [ {
    "name" : "Content-Type",
    "values" : [ "multipart/form-data; boundary=_Ts2FnAsKewlbhGOMZZ0hpCevvSIMOfq4Wf6" ]
  }, {
    "name" : "Host",
    "values" : [ "localhost:53588" ]
  }, {
    "name" : "User-Agent",
    "values" : [ "Apache-HttpClient/4.3.6 (java 1.5)" ]
  }, {
    "name" : "Content-Length",
    "values" : [ "590" ]
  } ]
}>

What it's strange is that I specified this assertion on the body...

  "body" : {
    "type" : "REGEX",
    "value" : "XMLSIP"
  }

...and if you check the body the XMLSIP string is actually there. So, if I'm getting the whole thing properly, it should not raise that exception, shouldn't it ?

Ok, so I don't get the meaning of the regex() method...

Here another example... here I would like to assert that the body matches the regex .+. Now... obviously the body should match it because .+ matches all.

java.lang.AssertionError: Request not found exactly once, expected:<{ "method" : "POST", "body" : { "type" : "REGEX", "value" : ".+" } }> but was:<{ "method" : "POST", "path" : "/", "body" : "--ipL-ZAWLTXJsVcr0mD7neREQXV5KxOCfedJjpBy3\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"VERSIONE\"\r\n\r\nversione\r\n--ipL-ZAWLTXJsVcr0mD7neREQXV5KxOCfedJjpBy3\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"LOGINNAME \"\r\n\r\nlogin\r\n--ipL-ZAWLTXJsVcr0mD7neREQXV5KxOCfedJjpBy3\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"PASSWORD \"\r\n\r\npassword\r\n--ipL-ZAWLTXJsVcr0mD7neREQXV5KxOCfedJjpBy3\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"XMLSIP\"\r\n\r\n\r\n--ipL-ZAWLTXJsVcr0mD7neREQXV5KxOCfedJjpBy3\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"ID1\"; filename=\"filename\"\r\nContent-Type: application/octet-stream\r\n\r\n\r\n--ipL-ZAWLTXJsVcr0mD7neREQXV5KxOCfedJjpBy3--\r\n", "headers" : [ { "name" : "Content-Type", "values" : [ "multipart/form-data; boundary=ipL-ZAWLTXJsVcr0mD7neREQXV5KxOCfedJjpBy3" ] }, { "name" : "Host", "values" : [ "localhost:46440" ] }, { "name" : "User-Agent", "values" : [ "Apache-HttpClient/4.3.6 (java 1.5)" ] }, { "name" : "Content-Length", "values" : [ "614" ] } ] }

Ok, I got it. The reg ex should match the whole body.

Here is how I fixed it...

    mockServerClient.verify(
            request().withMethod("POST").withBody(regex("[\\n.\\w\\W]*VERSIONE[\\n.\\w\\W]*versione[\\n.\\w\\W]*")),
            VerificationTimes.exactly(1)
    );

Or you can use multiline regexes that consider newlines as whitespaces by employing the (?ms) flag at the beginning of your regex.
