REST Assured brings the simplicity of using these languages into the Java domain. ## News * 2026-01-16: REST Assured 5.5.7 is released with backported support for Spring framework 7 MockMvc support. See [change log](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/master/changelog.txt) for more details. * 2025-12-12: REST Assured 6.0.0 is released. It raises the baseline to Java 17+, upgrades to Groovy 5, adds Spring 7 + Jackson 3 support (and bumps minimum versions for Spring/Yasson/Johnzon). See [release notes](https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/wiki/ReleaseNotes60) and [change log](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/master/changelog.txt) for more details. * 2025-08-15: REST Assured 5.5.6 is released with bug fixes and minor improvements. See [change log](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/master/changelog.txt) for more details. [Older News](https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/wiki/OldNews) ## Examples Here's an example of how to make a GET request and validate the JSON or XML response: ```java get("/lotto").then().assertThat().body("lotto.lottoId", equalTo(5)); ``` Get and verify all winner ids: ```java get("/lotto").then().assertThat().body("lotto.winners.winnerId", hasItems(23, 54)); ``` Using parameters: ```java given(). param("key1", "value1"). param("key2", "value2"). when(). post("/somewhere"). then(). body(containsString("OK")); ``` Using X-Path (XML only): ```java given(). params("firstName", "John", "lastName", "Doe"). when(). post("/greetMe"). then(). body(hasXPath("/greeting/firstName[text()='John']")). ``` Need authentication? REST Assured provides several authentication mechanisms: ```java given().auth().basic(username, password).when().get("/secured").then().statusCode(200); ``` Getting and parsing a response body: ```java // Example with JsonPath String json = get("/lotto").asString(); List winnerIds = from(json).get("lotto.winners.winnerId"); // Example with XmlPath String xml = post("/shopping").andReturn().body().asString(); Node category = from(xml).get("shopping.category[0]"); ``` REST Assured supports any HTTP method but has explicit support for *POST*, *GET*, *PUT*, *DELETE*, *OPTIONS*, *PATCH* and *HEAD* and includes specifying and validating e.g. parameters, headers, cookies and body easily. ## Documentation * [Getting started](https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/wiki/GettingStarted) * [Usage Guide](https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/wiki/Usage) (click [here](https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/wiki/Usage_Legacy) for legacy documentation) * [Javadoc](http://www.javadoc.io/doc/io.rest-assured/rest-assured/5.5.3) * [Rest Assured Javadoc](http://static.javadoc.io/io.rest-assured/rest-assured/5.5.6/io/restassured/RestAssured.html) * [Rest AssuredMockMvc Javadoc](http://static.javadoc.io/io.rest-assured/spring-mock-mvc/5.5.6/io/restassured/module/mockmvc/RestAssuredMockMvc.html) * [XmlPath Javadoc](http://static.javadoc.io/io.rest-assured/xml-path/5.5.6/io/restassured/path/xml/XmlPath.html) * [JsonPath Javadoc](http://static.javadoc.io/io.rest-assured/json-path/5.5.6/io/restassured/path/json/JsonPath.html) * [Release Notes](https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/wiki/ReleaseNotes) * [FAQ](https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/wiki/FAQ) ## Support and discussion Join the mailing list at our [Google group](http://groups.google.com/group/rest-assured). ## Links * [Change log](https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/raw/master/changelog.txt) * REST Assured on [openhub](https://www.openhub.net/p/rest-assured) * [Mailing list](http://groups.google.com/group/rest-assured) for questions and support Buy Me A Coffee
