Visualize the export of test Results in Postman

Image
 We use Postman to test various APIs. To ease our lives, we create collections and save those collections along with various test cases which further can be integrated with DevOps or automation testing frameworks. Let us assume, we did some changes in API and that API should be backward compatible. In such cases, these collections can be used to test the old functionality is not broken. The results output from testing plays an important role in Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC). While using the Postman GUI, we can run the collections and it will give the response in the GUI layout. After selecting a collection to run, it will give various parameters to select. We can select as per our need. Once we click on Run <Collection Name> ( Run Postman Echo ) Once we run the Postman Collection, it will give us the output in a beautiful GUI layout. Now to save results, we have only one option i.e. to Export Results as highlighted in the abo...

Using REST APIs to manage Connections in OIC

Image
In cases, when we have many connections created on the OIC instance, it becomes hard to manage connections using the OIC console. Also, to achieve automation, manually going and updating each and every connection is never a feasible task. OIC provides various REST APIs to fetch connection details, update connection properties and delete connections. With the help of these APIs, we can overcome such scenarios. In this blog, we will be discussing how to use various OIC connections REST APIs. A postman collection in the public workspace, which contains some of the use cases for this and can be forked, updated, and used accordingly. Below are various REST APIs, that are covered in this blog. Retrieve Connections Retrieve a Connection Update a Connection Test a Connection Refresh Metadata for a Connection Delete a Connection In this blog, we will be using Postman to test and run various APIs. Below is the link to the Postman collection, w...

Handling XML response with or without namespace in Postman

Image
 While testing an XML response in postman, we need to convert XML data to JSON in order to traverse child nodes of an XML document. XML documents can be with/without namespaces. If XML documents have namespaces, then those are declared as attributes to the XML tag. There may or may not be prefixes associated with XML tags containing namespaces. There are different methods or ways to convert XML to JSON, a few of which are described in this blog. XML to JSON without namespaces -- using xml2Json XML to JSON with namespaces  -- using xml2js Postman version : 8.0.7 Libraries : xml2Json, xml2js XML to JSON without namespaces Let's assume we are getting the below XML response from Webservice. <ROOT> <Account> <name>Name1</name> <id>123123</id> <addres...

DateTime formatting using xp20:format-dateTime ()

xs:dateTime Format In XML, we generally use xs:dateTime(xs:xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema") data type to store date time data. The generic representation of date time, that is supported by xs:dateTime in xml: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss[.SSS][Z|(+|-)hh:mm] Example :  2019-09-11T10:16:31.943+05:30 Code Description Example YYYY represents a 4-digit year 2019 MM represents a 2-digit month 09 DD represents 2-digit date 11 hh represents 2-digit hours 10 mm represents minutes in 2-digits 16 ss represents seconds in 2-digits 31 SSS represents milliseconds 943 T represents time separator T Z represents UTC time zone or 0 time zone offset (+|-)hh:mm represents time zone offset +5:30 Few more valid examples : 2019-09-11T21:32:52, 2019-09-11T21:32:52+02:...

Create Delimited String from XML Nodes and Vice Versa in SOA 12c

A delimited string is a string representation of data separated by a delimiter(e.g. ","). A simple representation of the delimited string will look like. Delimited String Examples Sample-1-- Delimiter as ","        Value1,Value2,Value3   Sample-2-- Delimiter as "|"        Value1|Value2|Value3 If we want to represent the above set of delimited values in the form of an XML document under some root and parent tag. The representation will look like this. XML Example <root xmlns="http://test.com/sample/xml">   <Values>     <value>Value1</value>     <value>Value2</value>     <value>Value3</value>   </Values> </root> Sometimes we may need to convert values coming in delimited string to an xml document or vice versa. Since delimited strin...

Import and Export MDS artifacts in SOA 12c

Image
Oracle SOA-MDS (Metadata Store) repository can be used to access artifacts that can be shared among various SOA composites. For example, we have one common schema for a business fault that is consumed by various applications. Instead of having a localized copy of that schema file in each SOA composite, we can have it in a centralized repository (SOA-MDS). Another benefit of using SOA-MDS is that we can change the file at runtime and need not redeploy the complete code. While developing SOA composites, we use SOA design-time repository, later these changes can be synced to the SOA servers. In this article, we will discuss 2 ways to sync the artifacts available in the SOA design-time repository and the SOA servers. Establishing the connection to SOA-MDS in Jdeveloper. Using SOA em console or Fusion Middleware control console. Moving a file between SOA composite to SOA design-time MDS repository Let's assume, we created a businessFault.xsd which wi...
