Create Maven Project and Add Dependency

• In this section, you will set up a Maven project to manage dependencies. Open your
preferred IDE and create a new Maven project. Add the Rest Assured & TestNG
dependency to your pom.xml file.

• <!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.rest-assured/rest-assured -->


<dependency>
<groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
<artifactId>rest-assured</artifactId>
<version>5.3.0</version>
</dependency>

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.testng/testng -->

Write Script to Send GET Request & Print response
Create a new class in the src/test directory. Write a script to send a GET request to the 'reqres.in' API.

import io.restassured.RestAssured;
import io.restassured.response.Response;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class APIDemo {

@Test
public void sendGETRequest() {
// Specify the base URI
RestAssured.baseURI = "https://reqres.in/api";

// Send GET request


Response response = RestAssured.given()
.when()
.get("/users/1");

// Print response body


System.out.println(response.getBody().asString());
}
}
Validate the Response Status Code

Extend your script to validate the response status code.


import static org.testng.Assert.assertEquals;

@Test
public void validateStatusCode() {
// ... (previous code)

// Validate status code


int statusCode = response.getStatusCode();
assertEquals(statusCode, 200, "Unexpected status code");
}
Validate the Response Body

Enhance your script to validate specific elements in the response body.

import static org.testng.Assert.assertTrue;

@Test
public void validateResponseBody() {
// ... (previous code)

// Validate response body


String email = response.path("data.email");
assertTrue(email.endsWith("@reqres.in"), "Unexpected email address");
}
Send Headers with the Request

Modify your script to include custom headers in the GET request.

@Test
public void sendGETRequestWithHeaders() {
// ... (previous code)

// Send GET request with headers


Response responseWithHeaders = RestAssured.given()
.header("Content-Type", "application/json")
.header("Authorization", "Bearer your_token")
.when()
.get("/users/1");

// Print response body with headers


System.out.println(responseWithHeaders.getBody().asString());
}
