For those of you looking to gain some experience working with REST Assured, here are all the materials from a workshop I've created and delivered multiple times to good reviews. Feel free to use, share and adapt these materials as you see fit.
A Java 8 JDK and Maven. That's it.
All API calls that are used in the examples and exercises have been mocked using WireMock. The standalone version of WireMock is included in this project, so there's no need for additional setup.
The mock server used to respond to the API calls you're making in the exercises is started and stopped automatically using a JUnit @Rule.
The .pptx/.pdf/.odp file in the root folder contains all slides from the workshop. Again, feel free to use, share and adapt them to fit your own requirements.
Feel free to file an issue here or send me an email at [email protected].
Sure, I'd love to. Again, send me an email and I'll be happy to discuss options. In house or at your conference, I'm sure we can work something out.
