logging when validation fails code example

Example: logging when validation fails

Log if validation fails
Since REST Assured 2.3.1 you can log the
request or response only if the validation fails.
To log the request do:

given().log().ifValidationFails(). ..
To log the response do:

.. .then().log().ifValidationFails(). ..
It's also possible to enable this for both
the request and the response at the same time using the LogConfig:

given().config(RestAssured.config().
logConfig(logConfig().enableLoggingO
fRequestAndResponseIfValidationFails(HEADERS))). ..
This will log only the headers if validation fails.

There's also a shortcut for enabling logging
of the request and response for all requests if validation fails:

RestAssured.enableLoggingOfRequestAndResponseIfValidationFails();
