Interface ResponseAwareMatcher<T extends ResponseBody<T> & ResponseOptions<T>>

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the response.

public interface ResponseAwareMatcher<T extends ResponseBody<T> & ResponseOptions<T>>

An interface that can be implemented to create a Matcher based on the contents of a response. For example imagine that a resource "/x" returns the following JSON document:

 {
      "userId" : "my-id",
      "href" : "http://localhost:8080/my-id"
 }
 

you can then verify the href using:

 get("/x").then().body("href", new ResponseAwareMatcher() {
                       public Matcher matcher(Response response) {
                           return equalTo("http://localhost:8080/" + response.path("userId"));
                       }
                  });
 

ResponseAwareMatchers are also composable with other ResponseAwareMatchers and other Hamcrest matchers.

Note that you can also use some of the predefined methods in RestAssuredMatchers.
