This library provides a simple way to compare two JSON, with an easily readable output to find what differs.

Features:

  • Compare JSON and returns a list of errors.
  • Compare a value using a regex, range
  • Capture a value
  • Compare a number to match a range

Simple compare

Example

Code
const string expectedJson = @"{
    ""a"":1,
    ""b"":""abc""
}";
const string actualJson = @"{
    ""a"":42,
    ""b"":""abc""
}";
var jsonComparer = TestUtils.JsonComparer.JsonComparer.GetDefault();
var errors = jsonComparer.Compare(expectedJson, actualJson);
Console.WriteLine(JsonComparerOutputFormatter.GetReadableMessage(expectedJson, actualJson, errors));
Output
Given json does not match expected one:
  - a: Invalid value, expected '1' but found '42'

--- expected
+++ actual
 {
-  "a": 1,
+  "a": 42,
   "b": "abc"
 }

Compare using regex

It's possible to compare strings with a regex, using a custom object with a property __match.

For example, in the following json, to compare the key compareMeWithARegex with the [a-z]+

{
  "compareMeWithARegex": "something"
}

The expected json given to the comparer should be

{
  "compareMeWithARegex": {
    "__match": {
      "regex": "[a-z]+"
    }
  }
}

Example 1

Code
Console.WriteLine("==== MatchExample.Test1 ==== ");
const string expectedJson = @"{
    ""a"":{
        ""__match"":{
            ""regex"": ""\\d+""
        }
    },
    ""b"":""abc""
}";
const string actualJson = @"{
    ""a"":""42"",
    ""b"":""abc""
}";
var jsonComparer = TestUtils.JsonComparer.JsonComparer.GetDefault();
var errors = jsonComparer.Compare(expectedJson, actualJson);
Console.WriteLine(JsonComparerOutputFormatter.GetReadableMessage(expectedJson, actualJson, errors));
Output
