http.get|post|put|delete methods have overloads to let you supply additional data in addition to URL:Query parameters Request header Payload (where applicable) Validation block Overloads maintain relative order, but you can omit any additional data.Here is http.get quick example: Groovy http.get("/query", http.header([h1: "v1"])) { price.should == 100 } Check HTTP/import-and-dependencies Import And Dependencies for prerequisites. Java http.get("/query", http.header("h1", "v1"), ((header, body) -> { body.get("price").should(equal(100)); })); Check HTTP/import-and-dependencies Import And Dependencies for prerequisites.

By default, WebTau automatically assert statusCode based on method. Method Implicitly Expected Code [{text=GET, type=SimpleText}] [{text=200, type=SimpleText}] [{text=POST, type=SimpleText}] [{text=201, type=SimpleText}] [{text=PUT, type=SimpleText}] [{text=200, type=SimpleText}] [{text=PUT (no response), type=SimpleText}] [{text=204, type=SimpleText}] [{text=DELETE, type=SimpleText}] [{text=200, type=SimpleText}] [{text=DELETE (no response), type=SimpleText}] [{text=204, type=SimpleText}] To turn it off, provide an explicit statusCode assertion. Groovy http.post("/resource") { statusCode.should == 200 // explicit check that override default 201 (for POST) implicit check } Java http.post("/resource", (header, body) -> { header.statusCode.should(equal(200)); // explicit check that override default 201 (for POST) implicit check });
