using spring boot like postman

Question

I want to test my rest service, but without postman or jmeter. Is it possible get json response via spring boot?

Example:

@Annotation
JSON request(JSON url){
...
}
or
@Annotation
String request(String url){
...
}

Answer 1

You could use curl from the commandline to test your restservice. Please see https://www.keycdn.com/support/popular-curl-examples for examples on how to do this.

In addition you might also want to write unittests using MockMvc. Please see https://spring.io/guides/gs/testing-web/ for more information about testing the web layer.
