How to validate if the status code returned is Successful i.e any of the 2xx HTTP status codes using Rest Assured?

Question

I would like to assert if the status code returned is any of the 2xx series i.e 200 or 201 or 204. I don't want to do it the old fashioned way e.g.

if(response.statusCode() == 200 || response.statusCode() == 201 || 
   response.statusCode() == 204) {
     
     \\...
  }

Is there any better way to do?

So how to test if a number is at least 200 but no more that 299? — jonrsharpe, Mar 12 '21 at 09:10
@jonrsharpe: Yes. From 200 to 299. Or sometimes in the 4xx series. — dipindashoff, Mar 12 '21 at 09:12
That was intended as a hint - how might you check whether a number is between x and y without exhaustively checking whether it's equal to x, x+1, ..., y-1, y? — jonrsharpe, Mar 12 '21 at 09:14

import io.restassured.internal.http.Status;

Assert.assertTrue(Status.SUCCESS.matches(response.statusCode())); // true for family of 
2xx eg 200 or 201

Reference: Mapping of HTTP response codes to a constant 'success' or 'failure' value.

You can use a CustomTypeSafeMatcher

 given()
.
.
.
.statusCode(new CustomTypeSafeMatcher<>("2xx StatusCode") {
   @Override
   protected boolean matchesSafely(Integer item) {
         return Status.SUCCESS.matches(item);
   }
})
