Updated 'Environment variable' in 'Request.Pre' was not updated in the request body.

[Auttasak-L]

I found that the updated value of variable 'counter'
in 'pm.environment' was not be replaced correctly
in the 'request body'.

Environment

• k6 version: k6 v0.29.0 (2020-11-11T13:27:03+0000/d9bced3, go1.15.4, linux/amd64)
• OS and version: WSL2 Ubuntu-20.04

Expected Behavior

Value of 'counter' that was set in
the 'pm.environment' variable
should be replaced correctly in
the sent request data.

Actual Behavior

The 'counter' value of first '/echo/'
request is 'undefined'.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. k6 run test.js

To fix this

1. I found that the problem is in below function
   at the commented line (line contains pm[Var])
   which can be fixed by replace it with
   'pm.environment.get'.

   function evaluate(string) {
   // return string.replace(expression.variables, (match, name) => pm[Var](name));
   return string.replace(expression.variables, (match, name) => pm.environment.get(name));
   }

Hi, thanks for reporting this.

This seems like an issue with the generated code from the postman-to-k6 tool. Would you mind creating an issue there?

Before you do that, make sure you're using the latest version to convert the Postman collection.

I saw that this wasn't recreated, so I moved the whole issue 😅

Apologies for the inactivity on this project.

Due to the inability to properly support this project, the k6 team has decided not to continue its development. The primary reason is that k6 scope has grown significantly with the launch of k6 extensions. The team is prioritizing extending k6 capabilities over the converters.

We suggest you post your issue at api-deck/postman-to-k6. The project is active and maintained on this fork.
