• 📐 Type Checking: Verify types with strong type safety
• 🔢 Numeric Assertions: Compare numbers, check ranges, validate mathematical properties
• 🎯 Pattern Matching: Test values against patterns and custom conditions
• 📦 Schema Validation: Validate JSON structure against expected schemas
• 🎭 Conditional Testing: Execute assertions based on conditions
• 🔄 Chain Operations: Fluent API for chaining multiple assertions
• 🎨 JSON String Testing: Special support for testing JSON string responses

Basic Usage

import 'package:assertable_json/assertable_json.dart';

void main() {
  test('verify user data', () {
    final json = AssertableJson({
      'user': {
        'id': 123,
        'name': 'John Doe',
        'email': '[e-mail]',
        'age': 30,
        'roles': ['admin', 'user']
      }
    });

    json
      .has('user', (user) => user
        .has('id')
        .whereType<int>('id')
        .has('name')
        .whereType<String>('name')
        .has('email')
        .whereContains('email', '@')
        .has('age')
        .isGreaterThan('age', 18)
        .has('roles')
        .count('roles', 2));
  });
}

Key Features in Detail

Property Assertions

json
  .has('name')               // Verify key exists
  .hasNested('user.email')   // Check nested properties
  .hasAll(['id', 'name'])    // Check multiple properties
  .missing('deletedAt');     // Verify key doesn't exist

Numeric Validations

json
  .isGreaterThan('age', 18)
  .isLessThan('price', 100)
  .isBetween('rating', 1, 5)
  .isDivisibleBy('count', 5)
  .isPositive('score');

Type & Pattern Matching

json
  .whereType<String>('email')
  .whereContains('email', '@')
  .whereIn('status', ['active', 'pending'])
  .where('age', (value) => value >= 18);

Schema Validation

json.matchesSchema({
  'id': int,
  'name': String,
  'email': String,
  'age': int,
  'optional?': String  // Optional field
});

  .when(isAdmin, (json) {
    json.has('adminPrivileges');
  })

JSON String Testing

When working with JSON string responses:

final response = AssertableJsonString('{"status": "success", "data": {"id": 1}}');

response
  .assertCount(2)
  .assertFragment({'status': 'success'})
  .assertStructure({
    'status': String,
    'data': {
      'id': int
    }
  });

Array Testing

json
  .has('items', 3, (items) {
    items.each((item) {
      item
        .has('id')
        .has('name')
        .whereType<bool>('active');
    });
  });
