And sometimes these are even nested. Let's look into how to verify complex response bodies like these. If we make a call to the read product end point which will return all of the products in our application, we'll see the body is an object that contains an array called records. And inside of this array we have multiple objects which contain multiple fields. So how do we verify this? One thing we may want to ensure is that the products are actually returned. There are 19 products here. So let's do a little bit of verification. We can start off by first verifying the status code.
