REST testing from Jubula [message #1758177]

Is it possible to make REST calls from a Jubula Test Case? The use case here is that I would run through the HTML UI to do some work (create a user, maybe) and then make a REST call to verify that the work has been performed (e.g. check existence of the new user).

The app I'm working with does have an HTML UI to check the existence of that user, but it's a ton of steps to navigate, do a search, check the various fields on the page, etc. I can validate same with one simple REST call.

Cheers,
KEv.

Hi Kev,

this is not possible in Jubula by default but there would be three ways to do this:
- You could use execute external command and execute some sort of batch file or any other program that would make the required REST calls [1]. This would probably be the easiest way.
- Another way would be to write an extension which would add actions to execute and verify REST calls. [2] [3]
- Instead of adding actions you could also write your own functions to do the REST calls. [4]

Best regards,
Kevin

Thanks Kevin,
The 'execute command' step doesn't seem to be available when executing browser-based tests (I looked on the 'Application' component type but it's not there). I'll look at the other routes.
