URL Parameters

This service is configured to respond to GET requests. These are defined using the forGet(String url) method with a URL that contains a parameter {year}, that is matched against the real request URL. You can reference this parameter in the response body using the annotation ${attribute.year}, which is replaced with a real parameter from the request.

URL Parameter Matching

private static final String URL = "http://www.ca.com/portfolio/{year}";

private static final String JSON_EXAMPLES_PORTFOLIO = "{"
+ "\"portfolio\": {\n"
+ " \"id\": \"1\",\n"
+ " \"year\": \"${attribute.year}\",\n"
+ " \"productNamesList\": [\n"
+ " \"CA Server Automation\",\n"
+ " \"CA Service Catalog\",\n"
+ " \"CA Service Desk Manager\",\n"
+ " \"CA Service Management\",\n"
+ " \"CA Service Operations Insight\",\n"
+ " \"CA Service Virtualization\"\n"
+ " ]\n"
+ "}}";
