JsonArray is not adding all JsonObjects-CodePudding

When I add a list of test JsonObjects, only the last JsonObject is add to the JsonArray. I do not understand why because I am following documentation from oracle. https://docs.oracle.com/javaee/7/api/javax/json/JsonArray.html

Methods from class called TestRun

public JsonObject convertToJSONObject() {
        return Json.createObjectBuilder()
                .add("name", name)
                .add("value", value)
                .add("timestamp", convertZonedDateTime())
                .build();
    }

    public JsonArray convertToJSONArray(JsonObject object) {
        return Json.createArrayBuilder()
                .add(object)
                .build();
    }

Main (Note: I am using faker to generate random info)

TestRun testRun;
        Faker faker = new Faker(); //Faker to generate random level_name
        JsonArray jsonArray = null;


        for (int i = 0; i < 2; i  ) {
            testRun = new TestRun(faker.name().firstName(), faker.number().numberBetween(1, 200));
            JsonObject object = testRun.convertToJSONObject();
            jsonArray = testRun.convertToJSONArray(object);
        }
        System.out.println(jsonArray);

You need to create an JsonArrayBuilder inside for loop instead of creating JsonArray at each step. Then build the builder outside of for loop like:

JsonArrayBuilder arrayBuilder = null;
for (int i = 0; i < 2; i  ) {
      testRun = new TestRun(faker.name().firstName(), faker.number().numberBetween(1, 200));
      JsonObject jsonObject = testRun.convertToJSONObject();
      if (arrayBuilder == null) {
         arrayBuilder = Json.createArrayBuilder().add(jsonObject);
      } else {
         arrayBuilder = arrayBuilder.add(jsonObject);
      }

}

jsonArray = arrayBuilder.build();

        this.name = name;

    }

    public JsonObject convertToJSONObject() {
        return Json.createObjectBuilder()
                .add("name", name)
                .add("value", value)
                .add("timestamp", convertZonedDateTime())
                .build();
    }

    private String convertZonedDateTime() {
        return timestamp.toString(); // replace with yours code
    }
}

            JsonObject object = testRun.convertToJSONObject();
            jsonArrayBuilder.add(object);
        }
