Class JsonDataProviderImpl

java.lang.Object

com.paypal.selion.platform.dataprovider.impl.JsonDataProviderImpl

All Implemented Interfaces:

SeLionDataProvider

public final class JsonDataProviderImpl
extends Object
implements SeLionDataProvider

This class takes care of parsing the test data given in the JSON format using the GSON library. The data returned is a 2D Array and there are utility methods to get specific data by index when not all data is required and convert a Json String to a specific type.

Method Detail

getAllData

public Object[][] getAllData()

Parses the JSON file as a 2D Object array for TestNg dataprovider usage.

  Array Of Objects mapped to a user defined type:
 [
 {
  "name":"Optimus Prime",
  "password":123456,
  "accountNumber":999999999,
  "amount":50000,
  "areaCode":[{ "areaCode" :"area1"},
              { "areaCode" :"area2"}],
  "bank":{
         "name" : "Bank1",
         "type" : "Savings",
         "address" : {
                     "street":"1234 Some St"
                 }
         },
  "phoneNumber":"1111111111",
  "preintTest":10
 },
 {
  "name":"Megatron",
  "password":123456,
  "accountNumber":999999999,
  "amount":80000,
  "areaCode":[{ "areaCode" :"area3"},
              { "areaCode" :"area4"}],
  "bank":{
         "name" : "Bank2",
         "type" : "Current",
         "address" : {
                     "street":"1234 any St"
                 }
         },
  "phoneNumber":"1111111111",
  "preintTest":100
 }
 ]

 Test Method Signature

  public void readJsonArray(TestData testData)
 

Specified by:

getAllData in interface SeLionDataProvider

Returns:

A two dimensional object array

getDataByIndex

public Object[][] getDataByIndex(String indexes)

Gets JSON data from a resource for the specified indexes.

Specified by:

getDataByIndex in interface SeLionDataProvider

Parameters:

indexes - The set of indexes to be fetched from the JSON file.

Returns:

Object[][] to be used with TestNG DataProvider.

getDataByIndex

public Object[][] getDataByIndex(int[] indexes)

Gets JSON data from a resource for the specified indexes.

Specified by:

getDataByIndex in interface SeLionDataProvider

Parameters:

indexes - The set of indexes to be fetched from the JSON file.

Returns:

Object[][] to be used with TestNG DataProvider.

getDataByFilter

public Iterator<Object[]> getDataByFilter(DataProviderFilter dataFilter)

Gets JSON data from a resource by applying the given filter.

Specified by:

getDataByFilter in interface SeLionDataProvider

Parameters:

dataFilter - an implementation class of DataProviderFilter

Returns:

An iterator over a collection of Object Array to be used with TestNG DataProvider

getDataAsHashtable

public Hashtable<String,Object> getDataAsHashtable()

A utility method to give out JSON data as HashTable. Please note this method works on the rule that the json object that needs to be parsed MUST contain a key named "id".

 [
 {
  "id":"test1",
  "password":123456,
  "accountNumber":9999999999,
  "amount":80000,
  "areaCode":[{ "areaCode" :"area3"},
              { "areaCode" :"area4"}],
  "bank":{
         "name" : "Bank1",
         "type" : "Current",
         "address" : {
                     "street":"1234 dark St"
                 }
         }
 }
 ]
 Here the key to the data in the hashtable will be "test1"
 

Specified by:

getDataAsHashtable in interface SeLionDataProvider

Returns:

The JSON data as a Hashtable

getDataByKeys

public Object[][] getDataByKeys(String[] keys)

Description copied from interface: SeLionDataProvider

Generates a two dimensional array for TestNG DataProvider from the data representing a map of name value collection filtered by keys.

Specified by:

getDataByKeys in interface SeLionDataProvider

Parameters:

keys - The string keys to filter the data.

Returns:

A two dimensional object array.
