WebTestClient assert failures should log request and response details [SPR-15249]

[spring-projects-issues]

Rob Winch opened SPR-15249 and commented

Currently WebTestClient has the ability to display request / responses without regard to a failure. However, it would be nice if there was a way to do this if the assertions fail. For example, the following would include the request / response in the exception.

webTestClient.get()
   .url("/foo")
   .exchange()
   .assertStatus().isOk();

The following would also include the request / response in the assertion (possibly with a new assertion exception that contains the original exception as a caused by)

webTestClient.get()
	.uri("/users")
	.exchange()
	.andAssert( info -> { 
		assertThat(info.getResponse().statusCode()).isEqualTo(HttpStatus.OK);
	});
