Is it possible to call an API/Web Service test case from a Web test case? They seem to be separated by project and don’t see a way to do this. For example, being able to create a test for failed login attempts and then making an API call from that test to determine if the account is locked.

Yes, I use that, but I believe it will only allow you to use a test case from within the current project. API/Web Service test cases are contained within a separate project.

Oh, sorry, _different project_, I missed that.

It might be cool to be able to reference one project from another and then be able to…

```javascript
def obj = callProjectTestCase("project_reference", findTestCase(...))

```

I’ll add a feature request…
