Testing and validation of REST services in Java is harder than in dynamic languages such as Ruby and Groovy. REST Assured brings the simplicity of using these languages into the Java domain.

Examples

Here's an example of how to make a GET request and validate the JSON or XML response:

get("/lotto").then().assertThat().body("lotto.lottoId", equalTo(5));

Get and verify all winner ids:

get("/lotto").then().assertThat().body("lotto.winners.winnerId", hasItems(23, 54));

Using parameters:

given().
  param("key1", "value1").
  param("key2", "value2"). when().
  post("/somewhere"). then().
  body(containsString("OK"));

Using X-Path (XML only):

given().
  params("firstName", "John", "lastName", "Doe"). when().
  post("/greetMe"). then().
  body(hasXPath("/greeting/firstName[text()='John']")).

Need authentication? REST Assured provides several authentication mechanisms:

given().auth().basic(username, password).when().get("/secured").then().statusCode(200);

Getting and parsing a response body:

// Example with JsonPath String json = get("/lotto").asString() List<String> winnderIds = from(json).get("lotto.winners.winnerId");

// Example with XmlPath String xml = post("/shopping").andReturn().body().asString() Node category = from(xml).get("shopping.category[0]");

REST Assured supports any HTTP method but has explicit support for POST, GET, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS, PATCH and HEAD and includes specifying and validating e.g. parameters, headers, cookies and body easily.

When it useful?

If you look at the official documentation of static App Shortcuts, you'll see that for each intent you need to set the android:targetPackage. But, what if you have different applicationId in different flavors?

In this case, you'll need copy your shortcuts.xml in two folder dev and prod with single difference. And if you create a new flavor with different applicationId you need to copy it again. Since at this moment we do not have any built-in merge tools applicationId from build.gradle to the shortcuts.xml this gradle plugin will be useful.
