💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using POST instead of GET for fetching data.

The GET method is used to retrieve data from an API. Setting pm.request.method to 'GET' ensures the request fetches data.

Complete the code to check if the response status code is 200 in a Postman test script.

Postman

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

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

B500

C200

D201

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 404 which means Not Found.

Status code 200 means the request was successful. This test checks if the API responded correctly.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the Postman test script to correctly check if the response body contains the key 'userId'.

Postman

pm.test('Response has userId', function () { pm.expect(pm.response.json()).to.have.[1]('userId'); });

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

Aproperty

Blength

Cstatus

Dheader

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'length' which checks array length, not keys.

The property assertion checks if the JSON response has a specific key like 'userId'.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a test that checks if the response time is less than 500 milliseconds.

Postman

pm.test('Response time is fast', function () { pm.expect(pm.response.[1]).to.be.[2](500); });

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

AresponseTime

Bbelow

Cabove

Dstatus

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'above' which checks if response time is greater.

pm.response.responseTime gives the response time in ms. The below assertion checks if it is less than the given value.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to write a test that verifies the JSON response has a 'name' key with value 'John'.

Postman

pm.test('Name is John', function () { pm.expect(pm.response.json().[1]).to.[2]('John'); });

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

Aname

Bhave

Cequal

Dlength

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'length' which is for size, not value equality.

This test accesses the 'name' key in the JSON response and asserts it is equal to 'John'.
