Why is it useful?

It’s Open-Source and very easy to write an API tests using JSON
E.g. if you have an url, method, and you know the expected result, simply you can assert keeping JSON structure as it is. e.g.

{
    "scenarioName": "Invoke the GitHub REST api and assert the result",
    "steps": [
        {
            "name": "get_user_details",
            "url": "/users/octocat",
            "operation": "GET",
            "request": {
            },
            "assertions": {
                "status": 200,
                "body": {
                    "login" : "octocat",
                    "type" : "User"
                }
            }
        }
    ]
}

What problem it solves?

You can chain multiple steps to create a scenario or an user journey
Http/Https calling is handled by the framework
Test Reports are fuzzy search and filter enabled

A test case template chaining two steps

{
    "scenarioName": "Free text - Can put Given When Then BDDish style text",
    "steps": [
        {
            "name": "a_step_name",
            "url": "a relative or absolute url or java class name",
            "operation": "a http method or java method",
            "request": {
                "headers": {
                    "if_any_key": "a value"
                },
                "body": {
                    "any_field": "a value"
                }
            },
            "assertions": {
                "status": 200,
                "headers": {
                    "if_any_key": "$NOT.NULL"
                },
                "body": {
                    "id": "an expected value"
                }
            }
        },
        {
            "name": "another_step_name",
            "url": "a relative or absolute url or java class name",
            "operation": "a http method or java method",
            "request": {
                "headers": {
                    "if_any_key": "a value"

                "body": {
                    "any_field": "${$.a_step_name.request.body.any_field}"
                }
            },
            "assertions": {
                "status": 200,
                "headers": {
                    "if_any_key": "$NOT.NULL"
                },
                "body": {
                    "id": "${$.a_step_name.response.body.id}"
                }
            }
        }
    ]
