Dear All, 
I"m given a requirement on how to test HTTP website without UI. Let says, we have a google website search functionalities (Not Web Services) and I need to test it. How to start? Can anyone give some example (JUnit)(Get/Post Method) for me to start this project. I tried reading the official documentation but found nothing about it. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

If your website is made with recent technologies, your UI is loading data from a REST API running on server side. An API is the part of the website that manage and exchange data over HTTP protocol. It's the core part of the website.

So to test your website without UI, you to test its API.

Good luck

I don't want to test API. I can use other tools to test API like postman. I want to test website without browser(UI) using HTTP get post method and insert data to request url or body.

I'm not totally sure I understand what your requirement really is, but it's worth pointing out that WireMock isn't a testing tool like Selenium or RestAssured, it's for simulating other APIs while you're testing. So if what you're testing has an HTTP interface, you'll still need a tool capable of driving it (WireMock won't fill this need).
