Testing a Rest Api which accepts a zip file as input

Question

I have a rest Api like below.

@POST
@Path("/importFile")
@Consumes("application/zip")
@ApiOperation(value = "Importing File")
public List<String> importFile(InputStream is) throws IOException {
    ZipInputStream zipInputStream = new ZipInputStream(is);
    return importFile(zipInputStream);
}

How can I test it ?

Or use something like postman, if you are looking for manual tests — George, May 26 '15 at 14:16

You can use a curl tool -

curl -v -F file=@file1.txt -F http://testYouFile/endpoint

You can also use chrome add-ons like postman or https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/advanced-rest-client/hgmloofddffdnphfgcellkdfbfbjeloo
