import http from 'k6/http';
import { expect } from 'https://jslib.k6.io/k6-testing/0.6.1/index.js';
export default function () {
const response = http.get('https://quickpizza.grafana.com/');
// Check for null values in response
const maybeNull = null;
if (maybeNull === null) {
expect(maybeNull).toBeNull();
}
// Check that required fields are not null
expect(response.body).not.toBeNull();
expect(response.status).not.toBeNull();
// Basic null checks
expect(null).toBeNull();
expect(undefined).not.toBeNull();
expect(false).not.toBeNull();
expect(0).not.toBeNull();
