Asserting array properties

GET {{mockBaseUrl}}/goods

You can check whether an array is empty or not, and whether it contains particular items.

/*
response has this structure:
{
  "errors": [],
  "areas": [ "goods", "services" ],
  "settings": [
    {
      "type": "notification",
      "detail": [ "email", "sms" ]
    },
    {
      "type": "visual",
      "detail": [ "light", "large" ]
    }
  ]
}
*/

const jsonData = pm.response.json();
pm.test("Test array properties", () => {
    //errors array is empty
  pm.expect(jsonData.errors).to.be.empty;
    //areas includes "goods"
  pm.expect(jsonData.areas).to.include("goods");
    //get the notification settings object
  const notificationSettings = jsonData.settings.find
      (m => m.type === "notification");
  pm.expect(notificationSettings)
    .to.be.an("object", "Could not find the setting");
    //detail array should include "sms"

pm.expect(notificationSettings.detail).to.include("sms");
    //detail array should include all listed
  pm.expect(notificationSettings.detail)
    .to.have.members(["email", "sms"]);
});

The order in .members does not affect the test.
