Hey I keep getting the following error: Exception during run: Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module C:\Users\tuboo\Desktop\super-api-test ode_modules\chai\chai.js from C:\Users\tuboo\Desktop\super-api-test\test\user.js not supported. Instead change the require of chai.js in C:\Users\tuboo\Desktop\super-api-test\test\user.js to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules. at Object.newLoader [as .js] (C:\Users\tuboo\Desktop\super-api-test ode_modules\pirates\lib\index.js:121:7) This is 2024, i've tried everything possible, no luck still, i know it has to do with the way i Imported chai for assertion... any suggestions please?

Huh sounds too amazing for buryat people ?

That's amazing! I am glad this video helped you out to prep for your interview. Good luck in the next round :)

Glad you enjoyed the content. We have created multiple courses that takes our students from ground level. If you want to become a full stack Automation engineer, Please check out the academy at: sdetunicorns.com/courses/

sure, i can add to the list :)

Thank you! Stay tuned for more exciting things related to API test automation.

I have added that in the list, will look into creating one in the future.

You can add this.retries(3); inside your it or describe block and it will retry on failure automatically.

@@sdetunicorns i tried doing that but it still fails on the first try itself

it worked. Thanks Dilpreet! I was using arrow functions for the test cases which was the reason for it failing before

Glad it worked out for you.

That's good to hear! Sure, what doubts do you have?

@@sdetunicornsI would like to connect on the existed project framework,as one here to help found ur videos

You can find the docs here - - mochajs.org/ - www.chaijs.com/

Hi Pradeep, first off my name is Dilpreet (not daljit) :) Second, since we are using ES6 code such as import statements we need to use babel to support that. There are other workarounds that we can do to avoid that but simply using babel makes it easy to use both import and require statements.

@@sdetunicorns Thankx for cleaning my doubts it's helpful.greatfull for such awesome valuable content.

It's not the language that matters, it's about understanding the concepts behind API Automation and learning best practices. Once you know that, you can pick any language of your choice to automate it.

Hey, you can look into JMeter to do performance and load testing. It's quite easy to setup and there are multiple resources out there already as well.

same issue here

No that is not required here as you can directly access and manipulate JSON data with JavaScript.

I had the same problem. I think the video needs a bit more details regarding the setup steps and any extensions that might be needed. The following worked for me to fix this. In vs code. View >extensions Add the following extensions Mocha snippets Es6 mocha snippets Once these are added the following statements should complete with intellisense. dsc - enter: completes a describe block It - enter: completes an it block Describe and it - enter: completes a describe and it block in one operation

In Supertest, you can define headers for a request using the .set() method. This method sets a header value for the next request to be sent. You can chain multiple .set() methods to set multiple headers for the same request. You can find examples here - www.npmjs.com/package/supertest

@@sdetunicorns Thanks for your prompt reply. I will do the changes and will let you know about this.

@@sdetunicorns I have set the header value as return request .post('loginUser') .set(('Accept','application/json'),('Content-Length',[500]),('Host',[600])) .send(data) .then((res) => { console.log(res.body.accessToken); in postman(Header) : Content-Type: application/json Content-Length: Host: Error in Javascript: TypeError: Header name must be a valid HTTP token ["application/json"] please let me know what is wrong I am making here

You will likely need to parse the user_id to string and then pass it to the API.

@@sdetunicorns how would I go about that? I’m super new to Java and API testing

@@sdetunicorns parse.string(“user_id”)?

Hi, curl request is simply an HTTP request which you can do with SuperTest itself. You can watch this course to learn how to make different kinds of HTTP request.

All these libraries are supported with TS as well, so you don't need to do anything different for TS.

@@sdetunicorns Do I still need babel with ts? What do I need to install differently to do this in ts? Thanks.

Well that depends on your project needs but in general you would not use Babel, just TS compiler is sufficient.

Install axios and everything else will pretty much same

Try to do these steps in postman to make sure it works fine there. If it does then you can review your code and see what you are doing wrong.

That's because you need to get NodeJS plugin installed in your Jenkins first and then you will be able to run the npm command.

There you go - github.com/automationbro/JavaScript-API-Automation-Tests

@@sdetunicorns Thanks alot !!!!

You can try to print out what you are getting for - res.body.data and troubleshoot from there

@@sdetunicorns Got it, I changed the res.body.data to Array.from(res.body.data) and now that works. Thanks for your response

Do you know the reason why my response body is blank ?

can you please share your entire request url?

Hi, you can use process.env.BASE_URL and then through CLI you can pass in your BASE_URL dynamically

@@sdetunicorns Thanks for your response!

Sure, I will add that to the list.

Hello, try to print out what you are getting from res.body as that's probably not returning the right response which is causing this error for you.

I got it , Import requires the file extension .

Try to print out what you are getting back as part of `res.body.data` and make sure you have proper data being returned
