Framework: assertJson() fails where previous seeJson() succeeded
- Laravel Version: 5.4.9
- PHP Version: 7.1
- Database Driver & Version:
Description:
assertJson() is failing when it should succeed. seeJson() succeeds. See image below for assertion array and content from response.
Also the failure response from seeJson() was more informative. SeeJson would show you the assertion array along with the content from the response. I had to add a dump() statement in to show both.
Steps To Reproduce:
$response = $this->get(route('api::bandAvailabilities.index'));
$response->assertStatus(200);
dump($response);
$response->assertJson([
'title' => 'test',
'address' => '100 main street',
]);

The core framework doesn't ship with these methods anymore. Please report on the relevant repo.

@GrahamCampbell here is the method in this repo that i am having trouble with
https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/5.4/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Testing/TestResponse.php#L195

I think the problem is the new assertJson() method does not work with nesting.
minimal steps to produce:
route::get('testjson', function() {
return ['data' => ['test' => 'testing']];
});
public function testBasicTest()
{
$response = $this->get('testjson');
$response->assertJson(['test' => 'testing']);
}
Fails:
1) Tests\Feature\ExampleTest::testBasicTest
Failed asserting that an array has the subset Array &0 (
'test' => 'testing'
).

Sorry for the necromancing. That is great. Thank you pointing out this function. I have spent all day trying to sort this.
@themsaid Is it possible to get assertJsonFragment() added to the documentation so other people don't struggle with an issue which has been solved? I would suggest at https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/http-tests#testing-json-apis

What could possibly be wrong ?

@bahdcasts I have the same problem, looks like a bug to me, assertJson doesnt work neither assertJsonFragment, and I have the exact response that I should be getting
This is my implementation
$call->assertJson([
"error" => false,
"data" => [
0 => SportPlaceResource::make( $this->cln),
1 => SportPlaceResource::make( $this->amp),
2 => SportPlaceResource::make( $this->df)

]);

)
Notice that after the return looks like it tries to match the php code.
I solved it with a simpler approach
$right_answer = [
"error" => false,
"data" => [
0 => SportPlaceResource::make( $this->cln),
1 => SportPlaceResource::make( $this->amp),
2 => SportPlaceResource::make( $this->df)
]
];
$this->assertEquals(json_encode($right_answer), $call->getContent());
hope it helps

A workaround for the bug with $response->assertJson($array) is $response->assertSee(json_encode($array)).
