Rest API Automation Framework

A scalable and modular REST API automation framework built using Java, TestNG, and Rest Assured. This framework is designed for testing RESTful APIs effectively with minimal configuration and high code reusability.

🚀 Features

• ✅ Java-based test development
• 🧪 TestNG for test orchestration and reporting
• 🌐 Rest Assured for fluent and readable HTTP requests
• ♻️ Modular and reusable test components
• 📄 Easy-to-maintain test data and configuration files
• 📊 TestNG default reporting support

📋 Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed:

• Java JDK 21
• Maven 3.x or above
• IntelliJ IDEA

⚙️ Getting Started

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/pothurajtharun/Rest-API-Automation-Framework.git
cd Rest-API-Automation-Framework

2. Import as a Maven Project

Open your IDE and import the project as a Maven project to resolve dependencies.

3. Build the Project

mvn clean install

4. Run TestNG Tests

You can run tests by executing the testng.xml file or directly through Maven:

mvn test

🧪 Writing Tests

• Use @Test, @BeforeClass, @AfterClass, etc. from TestNG to structure your tests.
• Use Rest Assured to write HTTP calls:

  given()
      .header("Content-Type", "application/json")
      .body(requestBody)
  .when()
      .post("/api/endpoint")
  .then()
      .statusCode(201)
      .body("id", notNullValue());

📊 Reporting

TestNG provides HTML and XML reports by default after test execution. Reports can be found under the test-output directory.
