测试Rest Api方法

Question

I'have to test the functions in rest api class that i created, I'm unable to get the functions of the created api class inside the test class, I haven't do the testing coding before. I need some guides to follow .

@POST

@Produces("text/plain")
@Path("/notifications/login/")
@HeaderParam("encoded")
Response login(@HeaderParam("encoded") String encoded, @QueryParam("tenantId") String tenantId) throws NotificationManagementException;

Its a function that i created, im not giving whole function body here, i need to know how to test this function. I'm giving a request call in javascript.

Answer 1

Unless there is some reason why you really don't want to, you could make the method public , and then you would be able to see it inside the test class.

ie

public Response login(...)

In the test you can then make a new instance of the class and call the method normally.

eg

@Test
public void shouldDoSomething(){
  SomeClass someClass = new SomeClass();
  someClass.login(...);
  //some assertions or verifications
}

Two ways:

1. Use Postman to send post request.
2. Follow Spring-rest-client to create a rest client for test.

Answer 3

You can test with Postman a great chrome extension tool for REST based APIs. Run your server and hit the request from Postman. The image shows how to make a request.
