Content checking for common file formats (PDF, RTF, xls, xlsx and docx)
The 'assert-content' command works with HTML pages and also supports common file formats. If your application offers the ability to download e.g. PDF files, you can simply write tests for the correct content also. To make this happen the file has to sent out by the server with the correct (supported) content type. At the moment the following content types are supported:
| Type | Content-Type Heder |
|---|---|
| application/pdf | |
| MS Excel (xls, xlsx) | application/vnd.ms-excel, application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet |
| MS Word (docx) | application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document |
| RTF | application/rtf,text/rtf,text/richtext,text/enriched |
Check the content of an PDF file.
