How to develop custom teststep for SoapUI 5.2.1 and upwards

Based on the article Creating your own TestSteps in soapUI i have been trying to develop a custom TestStep.

The article only seems to be outdated and the accompanied demo teststep also does not work without modifications.

I already have been able to overcome some of the issues, but am in doubt if i shall continue.

Are there any other options (APIs) i have missed, or is creating custom teststeps not supported anymore ?

I guess that may be old.
Now since 5.x it is changed

  Hi Rao,
  
  Thanks that's seems to be a good starting point. Only this documentation also seems to be outdated.
  This page about creating a Sample Plugin using the maven archetype is incorrect;
  https://www.soapui.org/extension-plugins/developing-plugins/plugin-development.html
  
  Ole Lensmar seems to have the correct documentation;
  http://olensmar.blogspot.nl/2014/07/getting-started-with-new-soapui-plugin.html
  
  And another issue is that SoapUI 5.2.1 requires that the Plugin is signed by smartbear to be able to load it in SoapUI without an (official) option to accept unsigned Plugins.
