You don't need to include additional libraries in your project. There are no dependency conflicts. In addition, RestFB is highly portable and can be used in both Android projects and normal Java applications.
Although we provide a standard implementation for our core components, each component can be replaced with a custom implementation. This allows RestFB to be easily integrated into any kind of project. Even Android projects are supported.
TThe RestFB API is really minimal and you only need to use one method to get information from Facebook and one to publish new items to Facebook. We provide default implementations for all the core components, so you can drop the jar into your project and be ready to go.
Our Facebook types are simple POJOs with special annotations. This configuration is designed for ease of use and can be used to define custom types very easily.
Newest Version of the
library is available from RestFB's home on Github.

RestFB is a single JAR - just drop it into your application and you're ready to go. Download it from
Maven Central:
Creating a "feature" in typically refers to using Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) to write tests in plain English . This is most commonly achieved by integrating Playwright with Cucumber or the playwright-bdd library. 1. Create the Feature File
You must map each "plain English" step to executable code in a file (e.g., login.steps.ts ). Import keywords: Given , When , Then from your BDD library.
import { Given, When, Then } from '@cucumber/cucumber'; import { expect } from '@playwright/test'; Given('I navigate to the login page', async ({ page }) => { await page.goto('https://example.com'); }); Use code with caution. Copied to clipboard 3. Configuration & Execution To bridge your feature files with Playwright's test runner: : Use Cucumber or playwright-bdd.
Create a file with the .feature extension (e.g., login.feature ) in a features folder. This file uses syntax to describe a use case.
: Execute via terminal using npx playwright test or a custom npm script.
: Use Playwright methods like page.goto() , page.fill() , and expect() . typescript
💡 : Use the Playwright VS Code extension to run and debug these scenarios directly from your editor.
Feature: User Login Scenario: Successful login with valid credentials Given I navigate to the login page When I enter valid credentials Then I should be redirected to the dashboard Use code with caution. Copied to clipboard 2. Define the Step Logic
