library used to test RESTful APIs. It simplifies sending HTTP requests and checking responses. You can write readable tests without needing to create a full HTTP client setup. It supports all HTTP methods and works well with tools like JUnit and TestNG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>How do you set up Rest Assured in a Java project?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Add the Rest Assured dependency to your Maven or Gradle project.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For Maven, use:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&lt;dependency&gt;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;groupId&gt;io.rest-assured&lt;\/groupId&gt;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;artifactId&gt;rest-assured&lt;\/artifactId&gt;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;version&gt;5.4.0&lt;\/version&gt;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;scope&gt;test&lt;\/scope&gt;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&lt;\/dependency&gt;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, include dependencies for JSON parsing and testing frameworks if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>What are the primary components of a Rest Assured test script?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>A typical script has three parts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>given():<\/strong> Prepares the request (headers, params, body).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>when():<\/strong> Sends the request with a method like GET or POST.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>then():<\/strong> Validates the response (status code, body, etc.).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>How can you send a GET request using Rest Assured?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a simple example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>given()<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>.when()<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;.get(&#8220;https:\/\/api.example.com\/users&#8221;)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>.then()<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;.statusCode(200);<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This sends a GET request and checks that the status code is 200.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong>What is the significance of the given(), when(), and then() methods in Rest Assured?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>These methods make the test readable and structured. given() sets up the request, when() performs the action, and then() checks the result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li><strong>What is POJO class in Rest Assured?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>A POJO (Plain Old Java Object) is a simple Java class.
