使用 Rest Assured 和 TestNG 处理异常/故障

Question

I'm trying to find a universal way of handling errors in my tests which use TestNG as the framework and Rest Assured as the library to make REST calls.

And in some of Rest Assured @Test annotated methods I enclose within try/catch:

    @Test
    public void readyForSend(String uid) {

        try{

        Response response =

        given().header("X-AI-Test-ID","new-shop-user").
               spec(requestSpecUserCreationService).
        when().
               get("/api/v11/new/createUser?uid=" + uid ).
        then().
              assertThat().statusCode(200);
        catch(AssertionError ae){
            logger.info("Unable to create new user");
        }
    }

In my TestNG file, I have the following set:

<suite name="create new user" verbose="1" configfailurepolicy="continue">

I have over 30 REST calls to make for each iteration and am using eg invocationCount = 10 so one single Rest Assured failure that does not have it's own try/catch and the whole lot fail. Must I enclose each in a try/catch or is there a better way of doing a 'soft assertion' so the tests do not bomb on me if not handled individually?

A simple way would be to simply make a method, which encapsulates the get and other post calls. You can do further exception handling in this method as well. The status code can be returned and a soft assert can be done post that. eg.

 public static Response doGet(String endpoint) {
            Response response = given(defaultRequestSpec).when().get(endpoint).andReturn();
//defaultRequestSpec can hold your headers, if they are common or pass as arguments
            return response;
        }

In your @Test method, make a call to this method

 @Test(invocationCount=10) {
        SoftAssert softAssert = new SoftAssert();
        softAssert.assertEquals(this.doGet("/api/v11/new/createUser?uid=...").statusCode(), 200, "Verify createUser response is 200");
    ....
    //further api calls
    softAssert.assertAll();
 }
