The import io.restassured.RestAssured cannot be resolved

Hi Johan,

I am getting the red squiggly lines when I use the below static imports: import static io.restassured.RestAssured.*; import static io.restassured.matcher.RestAssuredMatchers.*;

My POM. xml has the below dependencies:

And my imports for the time being are: import static io.restassured.RestAssured.; import static io.restassured.matcher.RestAssuredMatchers.; import static org.hamcrest.Matchers.; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.InputStream; import java.util.List; import static io.restassured.path.json.JsonPath.; import org.testng.annotations.Test; import io.restassured.path.json.JsonPath;

Don’t know where am I missing something. Also the given() etc (without any parameter) is not showing in the IntelliSense. Please help!!

The reason is the <scope>test</scope>

The fix for version 4.1.1 is to add some transitive dependencies:

        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
            <artifactId>rest-assured-common</artifactId>
            <version>4.1.1</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
            <artifactId>rest-assured</artifactId>
            <version>4.1.1</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
            <artifactId>json-path</artifactId>
            <version>4.1.1</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
            <artifactId>xml-path</artifactId>
            <version>4.1.1</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>

They are now excluded in the maven-bundle-plugin rest-assured 4.1.1 configuration. See the negated packages in the <Export-Package> of https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/io/rest-assured/rest-assured/4.1.1/rest-assured-4.1.1.pom
