### Assert Response Header Contains Substring (Gherkin)

Source: https://github.com/macpaw/behat-api-context/blob/develop/docs/steps.md

Asserts that a specific response header contains a given substring. This is useful for verifying content types or other header values that might have additional parameters.

```gherkin
Then the "Content-Type" response headers contains "application/json"
```

--------------------------------

### Set Request IP Address (Gherkin)

Source: https://github.com/macpaw/behat-api-context/blob/develop/docs/steps.md

Specifies the client IP address for an outgoing request by modifying the `REMOTE_ADDR` server parameter. This is useful for simulating requests from specific IP addresses.

```gherkin
Given the request ip is "192.168.1.1"
```

--------------------------------

### Validate HTTP Response Status Code

Source: https://context7.com/macpaw/behat-api-context/llms.txt

Assert the HTTP status code of an API response. This is useful for verifying the success or failure of requests, such as successful retrieval (200), creation (201), unauthorized access (401), or resource not found (404).

```gherkin
Feature: API Status Validation

  Scenario: Successful request
    When I send "GET" request to "api_health_check" route
    Then response status code should be 200

  Scenario: Unauthorized access
    When I send "GET" request to "api_admin_users" route
    Then response status code should be 401

  Scenario: Not found
    Given the request contains params:
    """
    {
      "id": 99999
    }
    """
    When I send "GET" request to "api_user_detail" route
    Then response status code should be 404
```

--------------------------------

### Validate JSON Response Content

Source: https://context7.com/macpaw/behat-api-context/llms.txt

Verify that an API response contains valid, non-empty JSON. This step ensures that the response body is correctly formatted as JSON, which is crucial for applications relying on JSON data exchange.

```gherkin
Feature: JSON Response Validation

  Scenario: API returns valid JSON
    When I send "GET" request to "api_status" route
    Then response status code should be 200
    And response is JSON

  Scenario: JSON structure validation
    Given the request contains params:
    """
    {
      "query": "test"
    }
    """
    When I send "POST" request to "api_search" route
    Then response is JSON
```

--------------------------------

### Save Values from JSON Response

Source: https://context7.com/macpaw/behat-api-context/llms.txt

Extract specific values from a JSON API response and save them as variables for use in subsequent steps or scenarios. This enables multi-step workflows where data from one API call influences another.

```gherkin
Feature: Multi-step User Workflow

  Scenario: Create user and then fetch their profile
    # Step 1: Create user
    Given the request contains params:
    """
    {
      "email": "newuser@example.com",
      "name": "John Doe"
    }
    """
    When I send "POST" request to "api_users_create" route
    Then response status code should be 201
    And I save "data.id" param from json response as "userId"
    And I save "data.email" param from json response as "userEmail"

    # Step 2: Fetch the created user's profile using saved ID
    Given the request contains params:
    """
    {
      "id": "{{userId}}"
    }
    """
    When I send "GET" request to "api_user_profile" route
    Then response status code should be 200
    And response should be JSON:
    """
    {
      "id": "{{userId}}",
      "email": "{{userEmail}}",
      "name": "John Doe"
    }
    """

  Scenario: Nested value extraction
    When I send "GET" request to "api_user_details" route
    And I save "user.profile.settings.theme" param from json response as "userTheme"
    Then response status code should be 200
```

--------------------------------

### Validate Empty API Response

Source: https://context7.com/macpaw/behat-api-context/llms.txt

Assert that the response body of an API call is empty. This is commonly used for operations like DELETE requests that signify success by returning no content (e.g., status code 204).

```gherkin
Feature: Empty Response Validation

  Scenario: Delete returns no content
    Given the "Authorization" request header contains "Bearer admin_token"
    And the request contains params:
    """
    {
      "id": 123
    }
    """
    When I send "DELETE" request to "api_user_delete" route
    Then response status code should be 204
    And response should be empty
```

--------------------------------

### Response Header Validation in Gherkin

Source: https://context7.com/macpaw/behat-api-context/llms.txt

Asserts that specific response headers contain expected values or patterns. This is crucial for verifying content types, security tokens, rate limits, and CORS policies.

```gherkin
Feature: Response Header Validation

  Scenario: Verify content type header
    When I send "GET" request to "api_products_list" route
    Then response status code should be 200
    And the "Content-Type" response headers contains "application/json"

  Scenario: Check custom headers
    Given the "X-API-Key" request header contains "secret123"
    When I send "GET" request to "api_protected_resource" route
    Then response status code should be 200
    And the "X-Rate-Limit-Remaining" response headers contains "99"
    And the "X-Request-ID" response headers contains "req-"

  Scenario: CORS header validation
    Given the "Origin" request header contains "https://example.com"
    When I send "GET" request to "api_public_data" route
    Then response status code should be 200
    And the "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" response headers contains "https://example.com"
```
