API Testing with REST Assured Java Literacy (Beginner Level)
- 25m
- 25 questions
The API Testing with REST Assured Java Literacy (Beginner Level) benchmark evaluates your knowledge of performing basic API testing with REST Assured, utilizing Hamcrest matchers, validating JSON responses and schemas, and testing different types of HTTP endpoints. You will be assessed on your ability to develop and test REST APIs using various HTTP verbs, manage request and response bodies with plain old Java objects (POJOs), validate response bodies using REST Assured, generate JSON schemas using online tools, and employ advanced validation techniques for JSON and XML data formats. Learners scoring high on this benchmark demonstrate the skills to conduct basic API tests using REST Assured and a grasp of foundational validation concepts and tools.
Topics covered
- compare a schema to a response body
- deserialize JSON responses to a generic container and a plain old Java object (POJO)
