Welcome to the Botium Knowledge Center

For chatbot content that follows the standards of the chatbot engine, usually the Botium Connector is smart enough to use this additional payload - but there are also cases when this payload is fully customizable and cannot be supported out-of-the-box by Botium.

For example, Botium usually can handle:

• Quick replies and other clickable elements

• File and media attachments, such as pictures, videos, audio files

• User interface elements such as carousels, adaptive cards and forms

• NLU information such as intents, entities and confidence

Here is an example of chatbot content that is not supported out-of-the-box by Botium - to handle disambiguation by presenting other options to the user like or did you mean this (full content can be found at the end of this article):

{
  "sourceData": ['
    {
      "text": "hi",
      "intent": ...,
      "response_selector": {
        "all_retrieval_intents": [
          "faq",
          "chitchat",
          "out_of_scope"
        ],
        "out_of_scope": ...,
        "faq": {
          "response": {

            "response_templates": [
              {
                "text": "You can use Rasa to build assistants in any language you want!"
              }
            ],
            "confidence": 0.22302119433879852,
            "intent_response_key": "faq/languages",
            "template_name": "utter_faq/languages"
          },
          "ranking": ...,
        },
        "chitchat": ...,
      }
    },
    ...
  ],
  ...,
  "messageText": "Hey there, my name is Sara."
}

Botium includes the JSONPath Asserter for adding your own assertions for custom payload to your Botium test cases.

The easiest way to show the custom payload in Botium is to use the Live Chat.

With the </>, the actual payload is revealed, you can inspect it and use it for writing your own JSONPath asserter statements.

Go the an online JSONPath evaluator and copy and paste the payload from Botium to the Inputs field. Strip it down to only include the sourceData attribute, as this is the element the Botium JSONPath Asserter operates on.

You can now use the JSONPath evaluator to write your JSONPath queries. In this example, I want to make sure that the Frequently Asked Questions are included in the alternative responses.

$[0].response_selector.faq.response.response_templates[0].text

Using the Visual Test Case Editor in Botium, you can now add a Generic JSONPath asserter to the convo step, using the JSONPath query from above and the expected value of the retrieved payload element:

In BotiumScript, this looks like this:

#bot
JSON_PATH $[0].response_selector.faq.response.response_templates[0].text|You can use Rasa to build assistants in any language you want!

If you do want to assert that the element exists, but not the actual content you can use the Generic JSONPath Count asserter instead:

#bot
JSON_PATH_COUNT $[0].response_selector.faq.response.response_templates[0].text|=1
