RestTemplate exception no converters found while testing a Spring boot Application

I am new to testing world of spring boot application. I want to do an integration testing on my Spring boot application. But i am getting following exception.

org.springframework.web.client.HttpClientErrorException$BadRequest: 400 null

I am adding an employee and department into the in-memory database with bi-directional relationship. 

public void testPostEmployee() throws Exception
            {       
        System.out.println("Inside Post Employee method");

        httpHeaders.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
        EmployeeTestDTO employeeTestDTO = new EmployeeTestDTO();
        DepartmentTest departmentTest = new DepartmentTest(1,"Sales");
        employeeTestDTO.setName("ABC");
        employeeTestDTO.setAge(20);
        employeeTestDTO.setSalary(1200.1);
        employeeTestDTO.setDepartmentTest(departmentTest);

        ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();

        String data = objectMapper.writeValueAsString(employeeTestDTO);
        System.out.println(data);

        HttpEntity<String> httpEntity = new HttpEntity<String>(data,httpHeaders);

        ResponseEntity<?> postResponse = restTemplate.postForEntity(createURLWithPort("/employee"), 
                httpEntity,String.class);

        Assert.assertEquals(201, postResponse.getStatusCodeValue());            

}

This is my new edit. As per previously stated suggestion i tried to implement all of them but neither of them succeded. It gives the bad request 400 null exception. Please suggest me how to solve it

You should change ContentType from APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED to APPLICATION_JSON.

httpHeaders.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);

Also you need to add RestController:

import org.springframework.http.HttpStatus;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.*;

@RestController
public class Controller {

    @PostMapping("/employee")
    @ResponseStatus(HttpStatus.CREATED)
    public void getEmploee(@RequestBody EmployeeTestDTO employee) {
        System.out.println(employee);
    }
}
