Previously, when the jsonPath helper was used to extract an array, the resulting array was written as e.g.

[{name=One}, {name=Two}, {name=Three}]

intead of in JSON format:

[{"name" : "One"}, {"name" : "Two"}, {"name" : "Three"}]

which made it inconsistent with object extraction since it produces the actual JSON object.

This behaviour of array extraction also made it necessary to apply the toJson helper too to receive the array in the actual JSON format.
