Handling JSON Path not found

Error: 

Invalid JSON Path or object not found

When trying to validate a response obtained from the server using JSONPath or JSONObject, you may encounter an error message stating that the JSONPath is invalid or the object is not found. This error is usually caused by an incorrect JSONPath or a response that does not contain the expected object.

Debugging methods:

Check the JSON response: The first step is to ensure that the response from the server is in the expected JSON format. You can use an online tool such as JSON Formatter to format the response and make it easier to read.

Validate the JSONPath: Once you have confirmed that the response is in JSON format, the next step is to validate the JSONPath. There are online tools such as JSONPath Online Evaluator that can help you validate your JSONPath.

Verify the JSON object: If the JSONPath is correct, but the object is still not found, ensure that the object exists in the JSON response. You can use a JSON viewer tool to visualize the JSON response and check if the object exists.

Verify the JSON object's data: Finally, if the JSON object is found, but the test is still failing, verify that the data within the object is correct. You can use the same JSON viewer tool to verify the data within the object.

Extra Information:

JSON: JSON is a lightweight format for data exchange between servers and clients. It is a text format that is easy to read and write and is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language.

JSONPath: JSONPath is a query language used to select specific parts of a JSON document. It is similar to XPath for XML documents.

JSONObject: JSONObject is a class in Java used to represent a JSON object. It provides methods for accessing and modifying the data within a JSON object.

Conclusion:

Validating responses obtained from the server using JSONPath and JSONObject can help you ensure that your web application is functioning correctly. By following the steps outlined above, you can quickly identify and fix any issues with your test scripts.
