[webtest][JIRA] Created: (WT-579) Allow to specify content in the PUT METHOD

Allow to specify content in the PUT METHOD
------------------------------------------

         Key: WT-579
         URL: http://webtest-community.canoo.com/jira/browse/WT-579
     Project: WebTest
        Type: New Feature

    Versions: Future work    
    Reporter: Sergio Pino
 Attachments: InvokePage.java

When using the method PUT we cannot use a XML in the body, or another kind of content type.

I think you only need to change the InvokePage:
	@Override
	protected Page findTarget() throws IOException, SAXException {
		if ("POST".equals(getMethod())) {
			return findTargetByPost();
		}
		if ("PUT".equals(getMethod())) {
			return findTargetByPut();
		}
		fCompleteUrl = getContext().getConfig().getUrlForPage(getUrl());
		final WebRequest settings = new WebRequest(new URL(fCompleteUrl));
		settings.setHttpMethod(HttpMethod.valueOf(getMethod().toUpperCase()));
		return getResponse(settings);
	}

and since we can have a REST POST:
I suggest as well:

if (!StringUtils.isEmpty(fSoapAction)) {
			headers.put("Content-type", "text/xml; charset=" + charset);
			headers.put("SOAPAction", fSoapAction);
		} else if (isRest()) {
			headers.put("Content-type", "application/xml; charset=" + charset);
		} else {
			// TODO: is this the correct Content-type for non-SOAP posts?
			headers.put("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");

}


Then something like this it will work:
<invoke description="Call a put method using rest" rest="true" url="/application/test/put" contentFile="myfile.xml" method="PUT" />

With kind regards
Sergio
