testland/karate-testing

Authors Karate `.feature` files using its Gherkin-flavored DSL for HTTP API tests, leverages the `match` keyword with fuzzy validators (#number / #string / #regex / contains / arrays), runs the suite via JUnit 5 plus Maven Surefire, and produces JUnit XML for CI gating. Use when the project is on the JVM and prefers a feature-file authoring flow over Java-DSL fluent chains; for those fluent chains use restassured-testing, for the same YAML-style flow on a Python/pytest stack use tavern-testing.

Karate keyword and match-modifier reference

Companion to the karate-testing skill: the full step-keyword table and the complete match modifier vocabulary. Per karate-docs.

Step keywords

KeywordPurpose
Feature:One per file; describes the API surface under test.
Scenario:One per case; mirrors a single user / API journey.
Background:Steps that run before each Scenario (auth, base URL setup).
Given url '...'Set the request URL.
Given path '...'Append a path segment to the URL.
Given header X = YSet a request header.
Given param X = YSet a query parameter.
Given request {...}Set the JSON body.
When method <verb>Issue the HTTP request: get, post, put, delete.
Then status NAssert the response status code.
And match exprAssert response body / header / variable shape.

Match examples

# Equality on the whole response
And match response == { id: 1, name: 'Alice' }

# Type fuzzy: any number, any string
And match response == { id: '#number', name: '#string' }

# Regex constraint
And match response.email == '#regex .*@example\\.com'

# Array contains
And match response.items contains { sku: 'SKU-123' }

# Array length / shape
And match response.items == '#array'
And match response.items[0] == { sku: '#string', qty: '#number' }

# Optional / nullable fields
And match response == { id: '#number', deletedAt: '##string' }   # ## = optional

Match modifiers

#number, #string, #boolean, #array, #object, #null, #notnull, #present, #notpresent, #regex <pattern>, and ##<type> for optional compose into a small but expressive matcher language (karate-docs).
