First of all, maybe the reason I’m doing this is because the company refused to implement such a feature inside Postman while spending their time on doing bizarre functions. What I need is a chime every time the tests are passing (status code is from group 2XX) after the request is sent. So first of all, create a Python file, name it sound.py, and paste the text below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

import os\nimport subprocess\nfrom http.server import BaseHTTPRequestHandler, HTTPServer\n\nclass SoundServer(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):\n    def do_GET(self):\n        # Odpowied\u017a dla Postmana, \u017ceby nie wisia\u0142 w niesko\u0144czono\u015b\u0107\n        self.send_response(200)\n        self.end_headers()\n        self.wfile.write(b\"OK\")\n\n        # \u015acie\u017cki do wbudowanych d\u017awi\u0119k\u00f3w systemowych macOS\n        if \"error\" in self.path:\n            # Niski buzzer (Basso)\n            sound_path = \"\/System\/Library\/Sounds\/Basso.aiff\"\n        else:\n            # Przyjemny chime (Glass)\n            sound_path = \"\/System\/Library\/Sounds\/Glass.aiff\"\n\n        # Popen odpala d\u017awi\u0119k w tle, dzi\u0119ki czemu serwer nie blokuje si\u0119 na czas jego trwania\n        subprocess.Popen([\"afplay\", sound_path])\n\nif __name__ == \"__main__\":\n    print(\"\ud83d\ude80 Serwer d\u017awi\u0119kowy Postmana dzia\u0142a na http:\/\/localhost:2137\")\n    print(\"Naci\u015bnij Ctrl+C w Terminalu, aby go wy\u0142\u0105czy\u0107.\")\n    try:\n        HTTPServer((\"localhost\", 2137), SoundServer).serve_forever()\n    except KeyboardInterrupt:\n        print(\"\\nZamykanie serwera.\")<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Run the file python3 sound.py this will set a server for sound notifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then in Postman create a global variable postman_odtworz_dzwiek<\/code> and set this value to true. Do not share the value with people that don’t have a script and the rest of the code! Then add the below code to your folder in the post-scripts section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
if (pm.globals.get(\"postman_odtworz_dzwiek\") === \"true\") {
    const is2xxSuccess = pm.response.code >= 200 && pm.response.code < 300;

    const endpoint = is2xxSuccess ? \"success\" : \"error\";

    try {
        pm.sendRequest(`http:\/\/localhost:2137\/${endpoint}`);
    } catch (e) {
        console.log(\"Serwer d\u017awi\u0119kowy nie odpowiada. Upewnij si\u0119, \u017ce skrypt jest uruchomiony.\");
    }
}

<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Send a couple of requests. Of course you can change which folders sound will be present in by moving the code.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
