Amplifying Test Automation using REST Assured

on YouTube ↗40m

" summary

Refactors a tangled signing component into isolated services, then automates 100 integration tests across 17 components and 40 REST endpoints using Rest Assured + Cucumber, Maven, Bitbucket and Jenkins; test-data-driven feature files are generated from a central repo and run in CI, cutting a 20–25 day manual cycle down to about 2 hours (reported 10–20x faster) and often completing runs in 10–15 minutes. Implementation uses separate test jars for components and produces HTML reports, validating the approach in production.
