I agree with Giovanni's hints here - your "domain actors" should talk using your "domain language" (the messages). Of course you can always just create an HttpRequest message (see http model in the docs) if you want to send that, however I'd recommend to test the http things more for the routing and checking if the proper domain message is sent as reaction to such http request (check out our routing testkit: https://github.com/akka/akka/blob/release-2.3-dev/akka-http-testkit/src/test/scala/akka/http/scaladsl/testkit/ScalatestRouteTestSpec.scala ), and then test domain things with normal domain messages.
