The concept

The main reason was to understand how to use REST assured to test and verify a REST API. For a target service, I used one of my projects that is living on https://api-flask-baur.herokuapp.com. It's a simple REST API service to get popular quotes.

Tests

Tests are pretty straight. Each test verifies specific functionality like: get a quote, get a random quote, try to get a quote that doesn't exist, try to create a quote if a quote number already exists, edit a quote, create a quote, delete a quote.
