System.StringException: Unrecognized base64 character: * in test class

Hi All,

I am getting the error in test class as System.StringException: Unrecognized base64 character: *. I am not getting how to resolve the issue. Could anyone help on this issue.
  
@isTest
private class TestUpdateCourseCompletionStatusService 
{
    public static testmethod void testupdate() {
     LMS__c lmsc = new LMS__c ();
    lmsc.Prod_CryptoKey__c = 'prod crypto';
    lmsc.Test_CryptoKey__c = 'test crypto';
    lmsc.Prod_IV__c = 'prod iv';
    lmsc.Test_IV__c = 'test iv';
    insert lmsc;
    
    Registration__c coursereg = new Registration__c();
    coursereg.Name__c = 'testcourse';
    coursereg.ID_Number__c = '1234';
    coursereg.LMS_Status__c ='Completed';
    insert coursereg;
    
     System.RestContext.request = new RestRequest();
     RestContext.request.requestURI = '/UpdateCourseCompletionStatus/*';
     RestContext.request.addHeader('decodedB64 ', '12345');
     
    UpdateCourseCompletionStatusService.updateCourseRegistration();
  
}
}

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Padmini,

It seems you will have to convert the string ie '12345' to Blob before setting it to the header. Use Blob.valueOf() method to convert the string to blob and then try:
  
@isTest
private class TestUpdateCourseCompletionStatusService 
{
    public static testmethod void testupdate() {
     LMS__c lmsc = new LMS__c ();
    lmsc.Prod_CryptoKey__c = 'prod crypto';
    lmsc.Test_CryptoKey__c = 'test crypto';
    lmsc.Prod_IV__c = 'prod iv';
    lmsc.Test_IV__c = 'test iv';
    insert lmsc;
    
    Registration__c coursereg = new Registration__c();
    coursereg.Name__c = 'testcourse';
    coursereg.ID_Number__c = '1234';
    coursereg.LMS_Status__c ='Completed';
    insert coursereg;
    
     System.RestContext.request = new RestRequest();
     RestContext.request.requestURI = '/UpdateCourseCompletionStatus/*';
     RestContext.request.addHeader('decodedB64 ', Blob.valueOf('12345'));
     
    UpdateCourseCompletionStatusService.updateCourseRegistration();
  
}
}

Hi Pankaj,

Thanks for your reply.  I have tried with your code. I am getting the error as "Method does not exist or incorrect signature: [RestRequest].addHeader(String, Blob) "

 
Pankaj_GanwaniPankaj_Ganwani
Okay, then try using EncodingUtil.base64Encode(Blob.valueOf('12345')) at line no 20.
Padmini S 26Padmini S 26
Tried with EncodingUtil.base64Encode(Blob.valueOf('12345')). Test class fails with error "System.StringException: Unrecognized base64 character: *"
Pankaj_GanwaniPankaj_Ganwani
Can you debug the above statement in test class and see what comes? It seems your base64 string contains some characters which are not valid ones.Base64 encoded strings only contain letters, numbers and the characters + and \ (and = for padding). 
Padmini S 26Padmini S 26
Hi Pankaj, I have added the debug log system.debug ('*****' +EncodingUtil.base64Encode(Blob.valueOf('1234')));. But i didn't get any value, showing error as Unrecognized base64 character: * in debug logs.

Can you please paste your controller code here, you are writing the test class for?

The issue is with the request URI, not the data being passed. It looks like your original test was setting the endpoint to:

RestContext.request.requestURI = '/UpdateCourseCompletionStatus/*'; 

Then in your controller, you have the following lines:

string enrCourseComDate=endpoint.substring(endpoint.lastIndexOf('/')+1); String enrCourseComDateUTF= EncodingUtil.urlDecode(enrCourseComDate,'UTF-8'); enrCourseComDateUTF= EncodingUtil.urlDecode(enrCourseComDateUTF,'UTF-8'); Blob decodedB64 = EncodingUtil.base64Decode(enrCourseComDateUTF);

Since the urlDecode('*') = '*', you are passing '*' to the base64Decode, which is not a valid base64 character.
