MockMvcResultMatchers.jsonPath(String).value() should have a matching method to declare the expected type [SPR-16587]

[spring-projects-issues]

Sam Brannen opened SPR-16587 and commented

#19067 was intended to introduce this support in JsonPathResultMatchers; however, it only introduced this support in JsonPathRequestMatchers and JsonPathExpectationsHelper.

This issue will therefore add this support to JsonPathResultMatchers as well.

Hello, I cannot see where in the https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/blob/master/spring-test/src/main/java/org/springframework/test/web/servlet/result/MockMvcResultMatchers.java the MockMvcResultMatchers#jsonPath method (code in master branch) you can specify the target type.

I mean, I have tojsonPath(String, Object...) and call value(Matcher). Would be great if the MockMvcResultMatchers has a jsonPath(String, Matcher, Class) method.
