REST Assured offers techniques to test application programming interface (API) endpoints that support different HTTP verbs. REST Assured allows you to specify your request and response body as a serialized JSON string, JSON objects, or just plain old Java objects (POJOs). This makes working with requests and responses easier and more maintainable. In this course, you will learn how to host a REST API server using a Spring model-view-controller (MVC) in Java, focusing on the use case of building a bug-tracking application. Next, you will explore various request types beyond GET, including HEAD and OPTIONS for API discovery, and POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE for resource management on your server. Finally, you will investigate advanced techniques for optimizing your work with API responses and requests., including deserializing JSON responses into POJOs for easier data management, applying strategies for dealing with nested fields in response data, and streamlining your code with the Lombok library, which eliminates the need for boilerplate code.
