Custom generator works only for the first request about restler-fuzzer HOT 5 OPEN

I have experienced the same problem some months ago without a solution

from restler-fuzzer.

@marina-p could you please confirm if this is a bug? I would be glad to fix it with some guidance, thank you.

Hello @marcellomaugeri,

Apologies for the delay in replying and thank you for the self-contained repro steps. In the above files, the dictionary and custom value generators have a different path:

        "/request/post/__body__": gen_restler_custom_payload__request_post__body_
        "/test/post/__body__": ["{\n\"test\" : \"test\"\n}"] 

If I modify both keys to match the Swagger (/test/post/__body__), RESTler sends both values generated by the custom value generator function.

Thanks,

Marina

@marcellomaugeri leaving this issue open to further brainstorm how to improve diagnosing this error. There isn't a warning issued today for unused value generators since one use case is to have the same value_gen.py for many Swagger files, which would result in noisy warnings.

@marina-p thank you for your solution. Actually, I made a mistake in providing the MRE, but the paths are all correct in my code. Still, it's sending the first value in the yield: { "test": "test1" } at the beginning, all the remaining payloads are just random strings, not taking into consideration neither dict nor other values in the generator. I was expecting Restler to send { "test": "test1" } and { "test": "test2" } alternated.
In brief, I would like to have full control of the payload sent, is it possible?
