The response for the http://localhost:8080/welcome-with-parameter/name/Buddy URL is as follows:

{"message":"Hello World, Buddy!"}

The integration test for the preceding method is very simple and is as follows:

@Test
public void welcomeWithParameter() throws Exception {
    ResponseEntity < String > response =
        template.getForEntity("/welcome-with-parameter/name/Buddy", String.class);
    assertThat(response.getBody(),
        containsString("Hello World, Buddy"));
}

Please note the following:

• "/welcome-with-parameter/name/Buddy": This matches against the variable template in the URI. We are passing in the name, Buddy.
• assertThat(response.getBody(), containsString("Hello World, Buddy”)): We expect the response to contain the message with the name.
