The problem is that you need to run a HTTP server to receive the request, so its not as simple as first it seems.

However there are many of Alfresco's automated tests that call web scrips via Post, use them as a template.

Take a look at the Remote API project, for example SiteServiceTest.

Is it really necessary? When i run a test with org.springframework.extensions.webscripts.TestWebScriptServer.GetRequest it runs perfectly .


Request get = new GetRequest("/dsd/id/process");
Response response = sendRequest(get, 200);

I've looked at the class : http://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/HEAD/root/projects/remote-api/source/java/org/alfresco/repo/web/scripts/site/SiteServiceTest.java . It only show how to post Json-messages. That is not a problem. I want to attach a file to my PostMethod. I can't figure out how to do this. Or is is just not possible to do this via the BaseWebScriptTest? When de test starts, does it use a certain port that i can adress? Than i can use HttpClient to post it.
