Hi Svs,

1.How  parse json objects in the body of HTTP request ?

2.How to create HTTP put/get request for test purposes with json objects through CLI or GUI.

We have client side code(written in PERL) which will actually generate these requests but I want to test my server side code independently.

Thanks,
svs
