Changes to the request should be handled by using the Refactoring option in the projects tab.
For more information, please see this document.
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.
