How do i perform conditional check using Gatling

Question

I have a scenario like this.

 private val feeder = Array(200, 404).map(e => Map("code" -> e)).random.circular

 private val search = scenario("search")
                          .feed(feeder)
                          .exec(http("search")
                          .get("/search/")
                          .headers(headers)
                          .check( if "${code}".equals(200) jsonPath("$.body").exists else jsonPath("$.exception").exists )

Is there a way I can achieve this kinda conditional check. As of now, the observed behavior is, "${code}".equals(200) will always return false.

`"${code}"` creates `String`, which will never be equal to integer. Can you try to replace `"${code}".equals(200)` with `code == 200` ? — Krzysztof Atłasik, Mar 09 '18 at 18:48

You can access a session inside jsonPath and extract code from it manually

.check(jsonPath(session => 
      if (session("code").as[Int].equals(200)) "$.body" 
      else "$.exception"
).exists)

According to the documentation, there is the following construct to achieve this:

// with a Gatling EL String condition that resolves a Boolean
.checkIf("#{bool}") {
  jsonPath("$..foo")
}
// with a function
.checkIf(session => session("key").as[String] == "executeCheck") {
  jsonPath("$..foo")
}
