🧪 REST API Automation Tests – ReqRes

Automated testing project for the ReqRes API using Java, RestAssured, and JUnit 5.
The goal of this project is to demonstrate CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on a RESTful API.

---

🚀 Project Overview

This project validates the functionality of public API endpoints from reqres.in
using automated tests written in Java. It focuses on verifying the correctness of HTTP methods,
status codes, and response payloads.

✅ Implemented CRUD Tests

Operation	HTTP Method	Endpoint	Test Class	Status
Create User	POST	/api/users	CreateUserTest.java	✅
Read Users	GET	/api/users?page=2	GetUsersTest.java	✅
Update User	PUT	/api/users/2	UpdateUserTest.java	✅
Delete User	DELETE	/api/users/2	DeleteUserTest.java	✅

Each test includes:

• Proper status code validation
• Response body assertions (using Hamcrest)
• Basic JSON payloads for POST and PUT requests
