how to print < and > in test case

[swathib]

My test case has to print &lt; and &gt; But these values are converting into <  and >.

 

String str = "&lt;![CDATA[{\"request\":{\"start\":\"2017-01-01T00:00:00.000-08:00\"}} ]]&gt;";

 

Here is my string object. When i'm trying to return it below string object value is printing.

 

<![CDATA[{"request":{"start":"2017-01-01T00:00:00.000-08:00"}} ]]>

 

Please help me on this>

Try replacing "&" with "&amp;"

"&amp;" will get printed out as "&" and the "lt" and "gt" will be unmodified

 

String str = "&amp;lt;![CDATA[{\"request\":{\"start\":\"2017-01-01T00:00:00.000-08:00\"}} ]]&amp;gt;";

 

Hope this helps.
