To include '+' in the request argument

[Akshit koul]

Hi team

We have a requirement where we have 2 scenarios in get request with value a and a+ . When we are testing from soap  and sending in the get request value=a+ , its getting treated as  a(whitespace) , which then the vse i believe is trimming and matching with the scenario of value =a . i have tried sending in %2b the unicode of '+' character in soap but it is getting treated as it is %2b only and not getting convereted to '+' character. Could you please advise how can we send the + as it is.

Thanks

Hi Akshit,

Not sure if I completely understand the requirements but below is one regex
that should match your 3 values (and only those 3):

a$|a\+$|a\+b$

Haven't been able to test it specifically within DevTest itself, let us
know if there's any issue.

Cheers,

Hi @Danny Saro
Thanks for the help.It works. Also is there a way to include whitespace. lets say if we have 2 scenarios a and a(whitespace).I tried a\s$ for latter , but the response is still getting fetched from the former(just the value a).
Else can we include whitespace without the use of regular expression just the equate option like value= a(whitespace) and stopping the space from getting trimmed

Hi Akshit,

Yes, I think you are encountering an issue in the product with whitespace
at the end of an argument when regex is the comparison operator. I can't
get it to work either. You might want to create a support issue to get a
confirmation from support and/or engineering.

Using the other comparison operators there is no other way to equate
whitespace to my knowledge, so the only option I see left is to create a
match script to do the required matching.
