This doesn't make sense to me, because if you are preparing this payload yourself, you never need to validate it.

That said, you can run a match anytime.

* def body = { myKey: 'myValue' }
* match body == { myKey: '#string' }

* url 'https://httpbin.org/anything'
* request body
* method post
* status 200
* match response contains deep { json: { myKey: 'myValue' } }

See how the second line does a validation.

Also refer this answer to see how you can programmatically run karate.match() for advanced use-cases: https://stackoverflow.com/a/50350442/143475
