Here are some notes on Jersey Test Framework as I feel the urge. This framework is in competition with the rest-assured framework.
(Maven) download site: https://maven.java.net/content/repositories/releases/com/sun/jersey/jersey-test-framework/ Tutorial: http://www.hascode.com/2011/09/rest-assured-vs-jersey-test-framework-testing-your-restful-web-services/
Sample (non-static) imports:
com.sun.jersey.test.framework.AppDescriptor; com.sun.jersey.test.framework.JerseyTest; com.sun.jersey.test.framework.WebAppDescriptor;
JARs:
jersey-test-framework-core-1.9.1.jar jersey-test-framework-core-1.9.1-sources.jar jersey-test-framework-core-1.9.1-javadoc.jar
JAR developers take note: Could the JARs be less confusing?
