REST Assured Java - Testing Employee Database

About this course

Build practical skills in RESTful API automation using Java and REST Assured through a hands-on case study centered on an Employee Database API. This course guides you through the complete workflow of configuring a REST Assured testing environment, creating structured JSON payloads, and developing automated tests for REST APIs. You will learn how to execute and validate REST API requests using the GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE HTTP methods while mapping JSON data to Java POJOs and verifying API responses with Hamcrest matchers. Through structured lessons, you will build automation scripts, evaluate test results, and confirm complete CRUD functionality using industry-aligned testing practices. Designed for learners who want practical experience with REST API testing in Java, this course combines step-by-step instruction with a real-world case study and quizzes that reinforce key concepts and hands-on skills. By the end of the course, you will be able to configure a REST Assured Java project, automate RESTful API tests, validate API responses, and assess the results of CRUD operations with confidence. If you want to strengthen your REST API automation skills through practical implementation, this course provides a structured, application-focused learning experience.
