jQuery replaced by CheerioJS in Postman Sandbox
Blog post from Postman
With the shift to NodeJS-based script execution in Postman v4.5.0+ and Newman v3, jQuery was replaced due to its reliance on DOM, prompting the introduction of CheerioJS, which emulates jQuery's core functionalities without needing a browser or DOM. This new library allows Postman users to manipulate HTML or XML responses effectively with a syntax familiar to jQuery users, as demonstrated in a sample script that extracts and tests HTML content. Additionally, lodash provides utility functions akin to those in jQuery, such as _.forEach replacing $.each, ensuring a fast, cross-platform scripting environment for Postman users that is free from browser-related issues.
