Throwing Hamcrest exception message while actual and expected are same

Question

I am getting the below exception message while having actual and expected are same.

@Test    

            public static void Verify()

            {

                given().

                get("http://services.groupkt.com/country/get/all").

                then().body("RestResponse.messages", equalTo("[Total [249] records 

            found.]"));}

FAILED: Verify

java.lang.AssertionError: 1 expectation failed.

JSON path RestResponse.messages doesn't match.

Expected: [Total [249] records found.]

  Actual: [Total [249] records found.]

Hi!

Below @Samartip's solution did not work for you?

Answer 1

Below will help you:

Its due to string char I suspect.

    @Test

public void Verify()

{

    given()

            .get("http://services.groupkt.com/country/get/all")

            .then()

            .body("RestResponse.messages[0]",equalTo("Total [249] records found."));}
