How can I define a submenu for "Run As" in the Package Explorer View on Java / Groovy method level (i.e. for a single JUnit Test Case method). If I declare it as "launchShortcut" I can only see the submenu in the package explorer on class/file level (not on method level). see: https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/172141/

Thank you for your answer. This way I can see the submenu for the "Run as" and "Debug as" launcher on class/file level but not on method level. How can I achieve this?

Never used it myself in this context, but it should be possible to use the selection to adapt to an Java element. For full documentation of the extension point, check this:
https://help.eclipse.org/2021-03/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Freference%2Fextension-points%2Forg_eclipse_debug_ui_launchShortcuts.html

To get some inspiration on how the adapt can be used in your case, check the JDT Junit configuration:
https://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.ui.git/tree/org.eclipse.jdt.junit/plugin.xml#n233

I guess that you need to adapt to IJavaElement or one of its sub-interfaces.
