Postman enable javascript

by

Postman has built-in support for JavaScript to enhance your API testing workflow. To enable JavaScript in Postman, follow the below steps:

  1. Open Postman application
  2. Create a new request or open an existing one
  3. Click on “Tests” tab below the request URL field
  4. Write your JavaScript code inside the JavaScript editor

Here’s an example of how JavaScript can be used in Postman:

pm.test("Response is OK", function () {
    pm.response.to.have.status(200);
});

In this example, we are writing a test using the built-in pm.test function. This will check if the response status code is 200 (OK). If the assertion fails, Postman will show an error in the test results.

You can also write more complex JavaScript code using variables, loops, and conditions to manipulate request/response data, automate workflows, and perform data-driven testing.

By using JavaScript in Postman, you can easily perform data validation, extract values from responses, generate dynamic request payloads, and more.
