# Rendering Results

## Rendering Results

The `execute()` method has an argument called `renderResults` which defaults to **false**. If you pass in **true** then ColdBox will go through the normal rendering procedures and save the results in a request collection variable called: `cbox_rendered_content` and expose to you a method in the request context called `getRenderedContent()`. It will even work with `renderData()` or if you are returning RESTful information. Then you can easily assert what the content would have been for an event.

```
it( "can render users", function(){
   var event = execute( event="rest.api.users", renderResults=true );
   expect( event.getValue( "cbox_rendered_content" ) ).toBeJSON();
} );
```

### `getRenderedContent()`

In testing mode, the ColdBox request context `event` object has a convenience method called `getRenderedContent()` that will give you the rendered content instead of you going directly to the request context and finding the `cbox_rendered_content` variable.

```
it( "can render users", function(){
   var event = execute( event="rest.api.users", renderResults=true );
   expect( event.getRenderedContent() ).toBeJSON();
} );
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://coldbox.ortusbooks.com/v5.x-1/testing/testing-coldbox-applications/integration-testing/rendering-results.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
