💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a wrong variable name like 'response' or 'status' instead of 'userId'.

Forgetting to put the variable name as a string.

The pm.environment.set function sets an environment variable. Here, the variable name should be 'userId' to store the value 123.

Complete the code to check if the response status code is 200.

Postman

pm.test('Status code is 200', function () { pm.response.to.have.status([1]); });

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A200

B500

C404

D201

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a wrong status code like 404 or 500.

Putting the status code in quotes which is not required.

The test checks if the response status code is exactly 200, which means success.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the code to parse JSON response body correctly.

Postman

let data = pm.response.[1]();

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Aparse

Btext

Cbody

Djson

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using text() which returns a string, not parsed JSON.

Trying to use parse() which is not a method of pm.response.

The pm.response.json() method parses the response body as JSON and returns the object.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to write a test that checks if the response body has a property 'success' equal to true.

Postman

pm.test('Response has success true', function () { pm.expect(pm.response.[1]()).to.have.property('[2]', true); });

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Ajson

Btext()

Csuccess

Dstatus

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using text() instead of json() for parsing.

Checking wrong property name like 'status' instead of 'success'.

We use pm.response.json() to get the response object, then check it has property 'success' with value true.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to write a test that checks if the response header 'Content-Type' includes 'json'.

Postman

pm.test('Content-Type is JSON', function () { pm.expect(pm.response.headers.get('[1]')).to.[2]('[3]'); });

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

AContent-Type

Binclude

Cjson

Dstatus

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using wrong header name like 'status'.

Using wrong matcher like 'be' instead of 'include'.

Checking for wrong string instead of 'json'.

The test gets the 'Content-Type' header, then asserts it includes the string 'json' using to.include.
