Those basically go in the form
POST http://localhost:8080/api/foo
Content-Type: application/json
{ "some": "body" }
We use a bespoke bash script to run these .http file with cURL, and then compare the outputs with jq, log success/failure to console, and write "actual.json"
Can I use HURL in a similar way? Essentially an IDE-runnable example HTTP request that references a JSON file as the expected output?
And then run HURL over a directory of these files?
If that's possible, I guess the only thing I'd request is interopability with the REST Client ".http" files that VS Code/JetBrains IDE's support then.
UPDATE: Found it, looks like you can do it via the below
POST https://example.org/api/tests
Content-Type: application/json
file,insert_user.request.json;
[Asserts]
body == file,insert_user.expected.json;
Is your expected.json the actual response body, or is it an object containing body, status, header values, and time-taken, etc?
Where do you see hurl in the next 2 years?
A favorite of mine is to be available through official `apt`: there has been some work but it's kind of stuck. The Debian integration is the more difficult integration we have to deal. It's not Debian fault, there are a lot of documentation but we've struggled a lot and fail to understand the process.
