Forum Assert Exact JSON Structure?

posted 7 years ago

Currently, I'm using assertJsonStructure in order to validate the structure, but it doesn't check the exact JSON structure, for example:

[

  {"id":1, "name": "Bueno Aires", "slug": "buenos-aires"},
  {"id":2, "name": "Neuquén", "slug": "neuquen"},
  {"id":3, "name": "Córdoba", "slug": "cordoba"}
]

Test results are:

assertJsonStructure([['id', 'name', 'slug']]);: true
assertJsonStructure([['id', 'name']]);: true

Test results expected:

assertJsonStructure([['id', 'name', 'slug']]);: true
assertJsonStructure([['id', 'name']]);: false

Is there some way to validate that?

You can consider using seeJsonSubset (more info here)

If you want to assert exactly the same json, checkout this package that add snapshot methods to PHPUnit: https://github.com/spatie/phpunit-snapshot-assertions
