Testing json data using Specs2

Question

I added(In built.sbt) matcher-extra :-

 "org.specs2"              %% "specs2"            % "2.3.4"                  % "test",
"org.specs2"               % "specs2-matcher-extra_2.10" % "2.3-scalaz-7.1.0-M3",

the ("/" the symbols are not resolving)

My example test case for Json is looking like below:-

package specs.model
import org.specs2.mutable.Specification
import org.specs2.matcher.JsonMatchers

class Json extends Specification with JsonMatchers {

"Json Matcher" should {
"1st field" in {
  val json = """{"name":"sagar"}"""
  json must  /("name" -> "sagar")
}
"2nd field" in {
  val json = """{"id":1}"""
  json must  /("id" -> 1.0)
}
}
}

ErrorMsg:-

I finally got it to work.

There are some instructions for setting up your build.sbt file here. Scroll down to the very bottom of the page. http://etorreborre.github.io/specs2/#Downloads

The import commands in my Application.spec file are:

import org.specs2.mutable._
import org.specs2.mutable.Specification
import org.specs2.matcher.JsonMatchers
import org.specs2.runner._

class yourClass extends Specification with JsonMatchers {  }

The following jar files are installed in the lib directory

specs2_2.10-2.3.7-javadoc.jar   
scalaz-core_2.10-7.0.4-javadoc.jar   
scalaz-concurrent_2.10-7.0.4-javadoc.jar  

This is the contents of my build.sbt file.

name := "playExperiments"

version := "1.0-SNAPSHOT"

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
    "org.specs2" %% "specs2" % "2.3.7" % "test",
    jdbc,
    anorm,
    cache
)     

scalacOptions in Test ++= Seq("-Yrangepos")

resolvers ++= Seq("snapshots", "releases").map(Resolver.sonatypeRepo)
