使用Java RestAssured创建POST请求，返回状态码422

Question

I have Ubuntu server instance on Windows 10. I have application, which is running on localhost on Ubuntu. When I create request on Ubuntu terminal:

curl http://localhost:8000/test \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8" \
    -H "Authorization: Basic cJJdlJ26p62JG23j34==" \
    -d '{
    "test": {
      "id": "564624232443234",
      "type": "book"
    }
}'

It works and insert into database.

When I have JUnit test in Eclipse with same JSON values above:

public class Test extends Connection {
.......

    @Test
    public void test_Insert() {
        Map<Object, String> mapRequest = new HashMap<>();
        mapRequest.put("id", "564624232443234");
        mapRequest.put("type", "book");

        given().
            contentType(ContentType.JSON).  
            header("Authorization", "Basic "+"cJJdlJ26p62JG23j34==").
            body(mapRequest).
        when().
            post("test").
        then().
            statusCode(200);

    }

It doesn't work. Returns me:

java.lang.AssertionError: 1 expectation failed. Expected status code <200> but was <422>.

If I only ping the server like below, the response is correct (200).

    @Test
    public void basicPingTest() {
        given().when().get("/").then().statusCode(200);
    }

Any ideas of the problem? Thanks

You don't send the same request by curl and by RestAssured. Curl:

{
    "test": {
        "id": "564624232443234",
        "type": "book"
    }
}

Restassured:

{
    "id": "564624232443234",
    "type": "book"
}

Add the map as test object

public class Test extends Connection {
.......

    @Test
    public void test_Insert() {
        Map<Object, String> mapRequest = new HashMap<>();
        mapRequest.put("id", "564624232443234");
        mapRequest.put("type", "book");

        given().
            contentType(ContentType.JSON).  
            header("Authorization", "Basic "+"cJJdlJ26p62JG23j34==").
            body(Collections.singletonMap("test",mapRequest)).
        when().
            post("test").
        then().
            statusCode(200);

    }
}
