Mountebank predicates doesn't check headers


I have below code and looks like it is not checking headers as a predicate.

{
  "responses": [
    {
      "inject": "<%- stringify(filename, 'Scripts/MyDept/CutOffTime.ejs') %>"
    }
  ],
  "predicates": [
    {
      "matches": {
        "method": "GET",
        "path": "/cutoff-times",
        "query": {
          "country": "\\w+"
        },
        "headers": {
          "X-CLIENT-ID": "^[ A-Za-z0-9]*$"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Strangely, when I pass @ as the value to header X-CLIENT-ID it validate and shows the message as no predicate match. Because it is not part of the regex.


Solution

  • Identified the issue,

    Basically if you need have multiple predicates need to merge them as below,(using and / or)

    {
      "responses": [
        {
          "inject": "<%- stringify(filename, 'Scripts/MyDept/CutOffTime.ejs') %>"
        }
      ],
      "predicates": [
            {
              "and": [
                {
                  "exists": {
                    "headers": {
                      "X-CLIENT-ID": true,
                      }
                  }
                },
                {
                  "matches": {
                    "method": "GET",
                    "path": "/cutoff-times",
                    "headers": {
                      "X-CLIENT-ID": "^[ A-Za-z0-9]*$"
                    },
                    "query": {
                      "country": "\\w+"
                      }
                  }
                }
              ]
            }
          ]
      }

    Further matches predicate doesn't check the existence (e.g. header existence)
