ReadyAPI-Environments: how to select the environment so it reflects automatically in the RestRequest

Howdie,   In previous versions of ReadyAPI (before the major release 3.0) I could select a particular environment in a project that changed all Endpoints of the requests of a that particule project...

    Hi socaltester 

     

    I think I found a solution.

    In my project I had to add webservices on creation. I've added a webservice as REST request.

    On creation of the TestSuite-TestCase-TestStep I needed to link to the desired webservice right?

    Well, click on the project, go to the main menu and go to Environments, create a new environment, in my case PDC-TA, add the Endpoint for this environment.

    Create another environment with the name eg. FSB-TA and add another Endpoint to this. In each of the endpoints you can edit it and add an authorization if you want to. For my second one I needed Admin rights. So add this while editing.

    Now when I go to my project and I select a rest request and I select FSB-TA as enviromet, I see the desired endpoint in my RestRequest. Nevertheless, all the endpoint from the different webservices still remain visible in the environments.

    I really can't remember what I did wrong before, but it works.

     

    Cheers,

I'm experiencing that same. It causes me to go in and manually change each endpoint and even those changes may revert back to the original endpoint.

      Thank you for the update and I'm glad to hear you may have found a work around and/or solution. I'll give it a try.

      Interesting. I don’t have admin rights on my work PC. Do you think’s necessary? I can’t get admin rights until I acquire a Microsoft Certificate of some sort. It’s aggravating. Sigh.

      Anyway, I’ll attempt this on Monday.

        socaltester No, normally this has nothing to do with admin rights on your laptop. Even if your company/client has installed ReadyAPI on your laptop, you should be able to access all elements IN ReadyAPI.

         

        Maybe TanyaYatskovska   or  Nastya_Khovrina   can help you out here.

         

        Good luck,
