REST Assured Java API Testing Automation

This course is designed for software testers and automation engineers seeking to analyze, construct, and implement advanced REST API testing solutions using Java. Divided into two comprehensive modules, the course first explores behavior-driven development (BDD) through integration of the Cucumber framework with REST Assured. Learners will gain hands-on experience writing human-readable test cases using Gherkin syntax, setting up reusable background steps, and bridging feature files with step definitions. The second module transitions into data-driven testing, focusing on transforming JSON payloads into Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs). Learners will develop structured test flows using object-oriented techniques, enabling dynamic handling of API request and response bodies. Emphasis is placed on real-world application, code reuse, and scalable test automation design patterns. By the end of the course, participants will be able to confidently construct, execute, and validate complex REST API test cases in a maintainable and modular fashion using modern Java testing frameworks

• Construct and execute complex REST API test cases in a modular, maintainable way
• Write clear, human-readable test cases using Gherkin syntax
• Set up reusable background steps for tests
• Link feature files with step definitions for effective test automation

• Proficiency in Java and basic REST knowledge
• Prior experience with API testing is beneficial
