Thanks for the suggestion. This "creates a new REST service and a REST Request test step for it."

 

When I specify the URL as ${#Project#Endpoint}${#Project#basepath}/resource it tells me I have an invalid URL. If I use a "real" URL, then edit the path later, it generates extra slashes that I can't remove.

 

Grr.

Example: I created a new TestSuite and a new REST method, as a POST, and gave it a URL of http://localhost:8080/playlist/findPlaylist

 

So now I have an empty TestCase. I can edit the Endpoint to be ${#Project#Endpoint} but there's no way to edit the resource field to make it ${#Project#basepath}/findPlaylist.

 

no luck.

    If a resource has 2 methods with identical names the first method is selected when adding the request to a testcase.

     

    You can right click to rename the methods e.g. findPlaylist POST and findPlaylist GET. That doesn't change the findPlaylist resource path only the name.
