Request Testing and Script Console

ReqPilot supports JavaScript in both pre-request and post-request stages.

Runtime API

• rp.env.get(key) / rp.env.set(key, value)
• rp.request.url, rp.request.body
• rp.request.headers.set(key, value)
• rp.response.status, rp.response.time
• rp.response.json(), rp.response.text()
• rp.response.headers.get(key)
• rp.test(name, fn)
• rp.expect(value)

Supported assertions include:

• toBe
• toBeGreaterThan
• toBeGreaterThanOrEqual
• toBeLessThan
• toBeLessThanOrEqual
• toContain
• toHaveProperty
• toBeTruthy
• toBeFalsy

Typical Post-request Tests

rp.test("status is 2xx", () => {
  rp.expect(rp.response.status).toBeGreaterThanOrEqual(200);
  rp.expect(rp.response.status).toBeLessThan(300);
});

rp.test("every item has email", () => {
  const body = rp.response.json();
  rp.expect(Array.isArray(body)).toBe(true);
  rp.expect(body.every((item) => typeof item.email === "string" && item.email.length > 0)).toBe(true);
});

Pre-request Utility Example

const randomString = (length = 16) => {
  const chars = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789";
  return Array.from({ length }, () => chars[Math.floor(Math.random() * chars.length)]).join("");
};

const generated = randomString(16);
rp.env.set("random_string", generated);
console.log("random_string", generated);

Test Results + Console Visibility

• Response tab Test Results shows pass/fail per test.
• Script logs appear in response-level Script Console.
• Global Console drawer shows request-by-request logs.

Snippets Included in UI

Pre-request snippets include UUID/email/random generation and payload/header helpers.

Post-request snippets include status tests, response-time checks, property assertions, array/email checks, and header checks.
