Using MockMvc, as an example, will be like this:

[...]

ObjectMapper objectMapper;

MvcResult result = 
            mockMvc
                .perform(post(URL)
                .headers(headers)
                .content(objectMapper.writeValueAsString(MY OBJECT)))
                .andDo(print())
                .andExpect(status().isCreated())
                .andReturn();

I've used this example code in my tests project. I guess ObjectMapper will help you! :)
