Instruction: How to Execute GET/POST Requests

GET Request

1. Go to Parameters tab and add a parameter with name url and some URL as a value (e.g. http://google.com?q=screenster)
2. Create or edit test and add Selenium command with the next code:
    

   package commands;

   import com.agileengine.screenster.logic.browsers.Browser;
   import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
   import java.util.Map;
   import utils.Screenster;
   import play.libs.WS;

   /**
   * This is an example test
   **/
   public class SeleniumCommand {
    /**
    * Main entry point, don’t rename this method, class and package
    **/
    public void run(WebDriver driver, Browser browser, Map parameters) throws Exception {
     String url = parameters.get(“url”);
     WS.HttpResponse response = WS.url(url).get();
     //if HTTP code is not 200 – fail test
     if (!response.getStatus().equals(200)) {
      Screenster.failTest(“HTTP code is wrong”);
     }
     //get response body
     String body = response.getString();
     //if body does not contain some text – fail test
     if (!body.contains(“screenster”)) {
      Screenster.failTest(“HTTP response is wrong”);
     }
    }
   }

    a) a parameter with name url and some URL as a value (e.g. http://google.com?q=screenster) and
    b) a parameter with name body and some value, an example is: {“name”: “json”}
2. Create or edit test and add Selenium command with the next code:
    

   package commands;

   import com.agileengine.screenster.logic.browsers.Browser;
   import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
   import java.util.Map;
   import utils.Screenster;
   import play.libs.WS;

   /**

   public class SeleniumCommand {
    /**
    * Main entry point, don’t rename this method, class and package
    **/
    public void run(WebDriver driver, Browser browser, Map parameters) throws Exception {
     String url = parameters.get(“url”);
     String body = parameters.get(“body”);
     WS.HttpResponse response = WS.url(url)
      .setHeader(“Content-Type”, “application/json”)
      .body(body)
      .post();
     //if HTTP code is not 200 – fail test
