Rest Assured Setup from

Scratch for SDETs


Created by: Japneet Sachdeva
HTTP Methods for APIs
GET
Retrieves the information at a particular URL.
PUT
Updates the previous resource if it exists or creates new information at a particular URL.
POST
Used to send information to the server like uploading data and also to develop a new entity.
DELETE
Deletes all current representations at a specific URL.
PATCH
This is used for partial updates of resources.

HTTP Status Codes
Once the Request is received by the server, it sends a response back using Response codes and Response body (if required).

1xx (100 – 199): The response is informational.

2xx (200 – 299): Assures successful response.

3xx (300 – 399): You are required to take further action to fulfill the request.

4xx (400 – 499): There's bad syntax and the request cannot be completed.

5xx (500 – 599): The server entirely fails to complete the request.

Code Setup for Rest Assured using JAVA
Now let’s set up a Rest Assured Tests from scratch using JAVA

@BeforeClass
public void setup() {
// Set the base URI for Rest Assured
RestAssured.baseURI = "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com";
}

GET Request
@Test
public void testGetRequest() {
// Create a request specification
RequestSpecification request = RestAssured.given();

// Send the GET request and receive the response


Response response = request.get("/posts/1");

// Assert the response status code and body


Assert.assertEquals(response.getStatusCode(), 200, "Status code should be 200");
System.out.println("GET Response Body: " + response.getBody().asString());
}

POST Request
The test creation process remains same, rest we can use below code to setup the request quickly

// Create a request specification


RequestSpecification request = RestAssured.given();

// Set the header to specify that the request body is JSON


request.header("Content-Type", "application/json");

// Set the request body


String requestBody = "{\n" +
" \"title\": \"foo\",\n" +
" \"body\": \"bar\",\n" +
" \"userId\": \"1\"\n" +
"}";

// Send the POST request and receive the response


Response response = request.body(requestBody).post("/posts");

// Assert the response status code and body


Assert.assertEquals(response.getStatusCode(), 201, "Status code should be 201");
System.out.println("POST Response Body: " + response.getBody().asString());

PUT Request
The test creation process remains same, rest we can use below code to setup the request quickly

// Create a request specification


RequestSpecification request = RestAssured.given();

// Set the header to specify that the request body is JSON


request.header("Content-Type", "application/json");

// Set the request body


String requestBody = "{\n" +
" \"id\": \"1\",\n" +
" \"title\": \"foo\",\n" +
" \"body\": \"bar\",\n" +
" \"userId\": \"1\"\n" +
"}";

// Send the PUT request and receive the response


Response response = request.body(requestBody).put("/posts/1");

// Assert the response status code and body


Assert.assertEquals(response.getStatusCode(), 200, "Status code should be 200");
System.out.println("PUT Response Body: " + response.getBody().asString());

DELETE Request
// Create a request specification
RequestSpecification request = RestAssured.given();

// Send the DELETE request and receive the response


Response response = request.delete("/posts/1");

// Assert the response status code


Assert.assertEquals(response.getStatusCode(), 200, "Status code should be 200");

Code Explanation
@BeforeClass: Runs before any test in the class
@Test: Each Request is treated as a test to facilitate further reporting etc.
Assert.assertEquals: Compares actual result with expected. Fails if they do not match.
setup(): Used to initialize baseURI, we can also use this function for setting global properties which remain the same throughout all
tests.

RestAssuredRestAssured.baseURI: Root or baseURL for all the APIs used for tests.

RequestSpecification: This interface allows you to specify how the request should look like. You can add headers, cookies, body, etc.,
to the request

given(): Helps in building the api request


header(): APIs have different types of header so this method can be used to set it.
body(): used for PUT & POST request majorly

Code Explanation Continued..
get(), post(), put(), delete(): all are used for respective HTTP methods GET, POST, PUT & DELETE

getStatusCode(): used to retrieve the response code


getBody().asString(): used to retrieve response body in string format
