PactumJS
clone
Deep clones a source input recursively and copies its values — instead of references to its values — into a new instance of that input. The result is a structurally equivalent clone that operates independently of the original source and controls its own values.
Syntax
js
clone(input)
Usage
✅ Correct Usage
js
const copy_obj = clone({ name: "mom" }); // clones object
const copy_arr = clone([{ name: "mom" }, { name: "dad" }]); // clones array
Arguments
> input (any)
Input could by anything.
Examples
js
const { spec, utils } = require('pactum');
const user = { name: "mom", age: 50 };
await spec()
.post('/api/users')
.withJson(user)
.expectStatus(200);
const user_two = utils.clone(user);
user_two.name = "dad";
await spec()
.post('/api/users')
.withJson(user_two)
.expectStatus(200);
Yields
Returns a copy of the input.
Notes
It internally uses klona package to perform cloning.
