[arquillian-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ARQ-912) Setup a declarative REST testing extension

[Matthew Fowle (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-912?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12756606#comment-12756606 ] 

Matthew Fowle commented on ARQ-912:
-----------------------------------

It would be nice to mix the path based retrieval of the current extension with a mechanism for getting a more raw form of data out of the ClientResponse.

At present this extension seems only useful if there's an serializable entity returned, where-as I have a need to test the JSON response in a more fine-grained way, pre-deserialization, and there seems to be no way to get that raw response body with this otherwise completely-fantastic extension.
