Template for Rest API with Docker and WireMock

[vvolverine]

Narrative

As a new user for Sprimber, I want to have reference template for test automation framework that capable for service based testing, so that I can on-board new project easily and quickly.

Technical Details

• Create new module under the sprimber-examples and name it spimrber-rest-template
• prepare layer package structure - steps for steps, pages objects for page objects, etc
• design several positive and negative smoke tests. mainly the execution time for each of them should be short
• implement this tests as feature files
• design and implement necessary steps and services
• prepare the step by step documentation in Spring style of how-to for this template in adoc format and publish it to GitHub pages
• see the details about the application under test in paragraph below

Application Under test

• Pick the WireMock as a beautiful service for stubbing and mocking.
• Start it as a separate Java process and implement steps that will configure some basic mapping before each scenario(like as a Background). For simplification stub may not contain state.
• Using Retrofit implement client for this service
• as a final point - containerize the WireMock using docker and prepare docker-compose file to start it.

Documentation

Prepare the how-to documentation that will explain how to prepare the environment as well with details steps how to build test automation application using technologies mentioned above.
