Do Karate support .avro file as an input request?

Question

We have a requirement where we need to send .avro file as an input request to our API's. Really stuck at this point. If any detail example provided would be more appreciated.

Answer 1

Just use Java interop: https://github.com/intuit/karate#calling-java

You need to write a helper (start with a static method) to convert JSON to Avro and vice versa. I know teams using this for gRPC. Read this thread for tips: https://github.com/intuit/karate/issues/412

Also there is even a "karate-grpc" project: https://github.com/pecker-io/karate-grpc
