My Code:

* print 'printing response'
* print response
* def text = karate.readAsString(response).  #throws error #(No such file or directory)
* def token = karate.extract(text, ??? , ???)

please help. thanks in advance

Solution

  • In this case response is already a string so just use it. Refer: https://github.com/karatelabs/karate#responsetype

    * def token = karate.extract(response, ??? , ???)
