Convert BufferedInputStream to String in Clojure

Question

mock.request is returning the response :body as a BufferedInputStream. I need to print and compare this as a string. How do I convert it?

When I try to pass response as a message to my assertion, I see a raw output, e.g.

(is (= 200 (:status response) (:body response)))
=> #object[java.io.BufferedInputStream 0x211bdf40 java.io.BufferedInputStream@211bdf40]

Just slurp it:

(slurp (:body response))

Thanks. I also had to ensure my API calls returned `(resp/response "some body")` otherwise the response would not be a stream. I.e. Just returning "ok" was just a string and slurp would try to open it as a file. – Petrus Theron Jun 30 '16 at 10:52
