MockServer verify with multiple body matchers

I’m using MockServer body matchers to verify an endpoint request’s body parameters. Some properties can be matched exactly, but others may need a separate subString or regex matcher, because part of that property is unknown. For example, a date-time string may have a known date, but unknown time.

However, with multiple withBody() calls, the verify method passes if one or more matcher passes. How to implement a logical AND instead of an OR?

mockServer.verify(
    request()
        .withPath(url)
        .withMethod("POST")
        .withBody(
            json(
                "{"firstName": "foo","lastName": "bar"}",
                MatchType.ONLY_MATCHING_FIELDS))
        .withBody(
            // Need subString because we don't know the time and only want to validate the date
            subString(""order_date_time": "2021-04-15")));

Answer

To perform a logical-AND on multiple body matcher criteria, you need to call the verify() method multiple times:

private void verifyOrderPlaced() {
  verifyName();
  verifyOrderDate();
}

private void verifyName() {
  mockServer.verify(
      request()
          .withPath(url)
          .withMethod("POST")
          .withBody(
              json(
                  "{"firstName": "foo","lastName": "bar"}",
                  MatchType.ONLY_MATCHING_FIELDS)));
}

private void verifyOrderDate() {
  mockServer.verify(
      request()
          .withPath(url)
          .withMethod("POST")
          .withBody(
              subString(""order_date_time": "2021-04-15")));
}
