Auto update testcase

Hi Experts ;-),

 

I'm using Ready! API 1.5.0 where I have a project with several HTTP REST Resources. For these I've move them to one TestCase and executing some tests with it went fine. Now I've made some (name)changes on Request-level in the project, and I would expect to see the changes appear automatically in the TestCase (teststep name), but that is not the case. Maybe I miss an option to update my TestCase with the changes I've made, but I can't find this one either.


It cannot be the case that I have to press "Add this REST request to a testcase" again, for the changes that I'ved made?

  • Changes to the request should be handled by using the Refactoring option in the projects tab.

      Refactoring requires an URL of a file which is "pointing" to the updated definition. Since I've created the project manually, I don't have both of them. 

      So when I make a change to (for instance) the name of the Request in the project tree, this namechange is not taken over in my TestCase. Why Not?

       

      The only possibility I see, is to press "Add this REST request to a TestCase" in my Project and then lose all the settings I have made on the TestStep in the Testcase, because a new TestStep is added with the updated name.

       

      Any suggestions besides Refactoring?

        Unfortunately not. You would have to make those changes manually.
