Pass Json to karate-config.js file

Question

I have more than 6 environments against which i have to run the same set of rest api scripts. For that reason i have stored all that test data and the end points/resource pa

I think you over-complicated your JSON. You just need one object and no top-level array. Just use this as env_data.json:

{
   "qa":{
      "username_cm_on":"test_cm_on_qa",
      "password_cm_on":"Test123$",
      "nonadmin_username_cm_on":"test_non_admin_cm_on_qa",
      "nonadmin_password_cm_on":"Test123$",
      "username_cm_off":"test_cm_off_qa",
      "password_cm_off":"Test123$",
      "nonadmin_username_cm_off":"test_non_admin_cm_off_qa",
      "nonadmin_password_cm_off":"Test123$",
      "zuul_urls":{
         "home-sec-uri":"https://qa.abc.com/qa/home-sec-uri",
         "home-res-uri":"https://qa.abc.com/qa/home-res-uri"
      }
   },
   "uat":{
      "username_cm_on":"test_cm_on_uat",
      "password_cm_on":"Test123$",
      "nonadmin_username_cm_on":"test_non_admin_cm_on_uat",
      "nonadmin_password_cm_on":"Test123$",
      "username_cm_off":"test_cm_off_uat",
      "password_cm_off":"Test123$",
      "nonadmin_username_cm_off":"test_non_admin_cm_off_uat",
      "nonadmin_password_cm_off":"Test123$",
      "zuul_urls":{
         "home-sec-uri":"https://uat.abc.com/qa/home-sec-uri",
         "home-res-uri":"https://uat.abc.com/qa/home-res-uri"
      }
   }
}

And then this karate-config.js will work:

function() {
  var env = 'qa'; // karate.env
  var temp = read('classpath:env_data.json');
  return temp[env];
}

And your tests can be more readable:

Given url zuul_urls['home-sec-uri']
