Testing A Post API Using Restassured

Purpose of POST

POST requests create new resources on the server, typically sending a JSON body containing the new resource's data.

Example

given()
    .contentType("application/json")
    .body("{ \"name\": \"Asha\", \"job\": \"QA\" }")
.when()
    .post("https://reqres.in/api/users")
.then()
    .statusCode(201)
    .body("name", equalTo("Asha"));

What to Verify

Confirm the status code (commonly 201 Created), that the response echoes back the submitted data correctly, and that a new resource identifier is returned.
