How can we use OpenShift in Ready API?
There is a scenario where I need to login to particular server of Open Shift using code and fetch the logs (SOAP response) from there. Can we do it using Java or Groovy? Any code help will suffice.

Yes absolutely correct groovyguy . Is there any way we can do this? Else I need to opt for another approach.
avidCoder: Are the log files available through an HTTP / HTTPS / FTP webserver? If so, that may be doable with either an FTP test step, or a groovy script. If they are available through a network share, that might work too.
If the files are not available through such an interface and if you do truly need to log into a server and manually download/copy the files, then I am not sure there's much that can be done even with groovy. Can you elaborate and provide the detailed steps you would need to mimic? How would you do this process manually?
Manually, I'd login to OpenShift server with username and password. Once it is logged in properly, I'd go to the application and click on the logs link. Here we can see the logs for the services. From here, I need to get the SOAP response and that's all. This thing I want to automate through Java/Groovy.
After I hit the REST request, I will get the REST response in JSON format, Next testStep I will add as "validateXML" . Here, I'd write the code for all the connection of OpenShift.
So, What is happening here is, I am hitting the REST service and getting the JSON response and once I get this, I need to verify the same from OpenShift which has SOAP response. And all the tags will be different here. So, By any way I get the logs, I will take put the SOAP response out of it and then will MAP JSON object with XML tags. And we are done.
Okay, I am tracking what you are saying but I need a bit more information. Please bear with me, but I need you to be as detailed as you can telling me how you login to the OpenShift server.
Is this a webpage that you go to to see the logs? Do you RDP to the OpenShift server? Do you SSH? How/what application do you use to access the OpenShift server?This is kind of server, you can say.. for which we have URL for different environment. And to access this URL we require client SSL certificate. Just we need to navigate to that URL through browser and enter the user/pass for the environment I am accessing. RDP is not at all required. we can access it on local but certificate is required.
