Assertions on XML response in Karate - karate

Question

How to apply assertions in such kind of a response in XML.
I have tried to convert this in json first by using
* json response = response
But this returns an invalid json when checked via json validator. As I thought converting in JSON and then matching the response will be easier.
** Assertions**
Check if first tag is Resource.
Check type is type1
Check valueTotal is 7
Check /Resource/entry/url value is https://myurl1
Check /Resource/entry/resource/user/identifier/type/coding/code
value is CC
<Resource xmlns="http://myurl">
<type xmlns="" value="type1"/>
<valueTotal xmlns="" value="7"/>
<entry xmlns="">
<url value="https://myurl1"/>
<resource>
<user>
<id value="123"/>
<identifier>
<type>
<coding>
<system value="http://myurl2"/>
<code value="CC"/>
<display value="abcedflk"/>

Answer 1

Assuming the XML is in the variable response:
# the first 2 lines are un-necessary, as all the
# XPath assertions start with /Resource
* json asJson = response
* match asJson contains { Resource: '#present' }
* match /Resource/type/#value == 'type1'
* match /Resource/valueTotal/#value == '7'
* match /Resource/entry[1]/url/#value == 'https://myurl1'
* match /Resource/entry[1]/resource/user/identifier/type/coding/code/#value == 'CC'
