1. A connector assembly comprising: a first connector having a first housing on which an elastic locking piece is suspended; a second connector having a second housing on which a locking member mated with the elastic locking piece is formed so as to lock the first and second connectors together when the first and second connectors are mated with each other; and a connector position assurance device having a first stopper and a second stopper behind the first stopper, wherein a first mating stopper is formed on the elastic locking piece, and a second mating stopper is formed on the first housing of the first connector, wherein the connector position assurance device is configured to be inserted into a first position under the elastic locking piece of the first connector when the first and second connectors are separate from each other, wherein at the first position, the first stopper of the connector position assurance device is abutted against the first mating stopper of the first connector to prevent the connector position assurance device from being further pushed forward, and at the first position, the second stopper of the connector position assurance device is abutted against the second mating stopper of the first connector to prevent the connector position assurance device from being pulled out backward; wherein the first mating stopper is configured to be an elastic finger formed integrally with the elastic locking piece and being movable independently from the remainder of the elastic locking piece.
