1) Changed API from web services to REST services
2) Database has completely changed
3) No documentation for this private API
It would be really, really great if the API was actually documented and available for everyone. Now it is just too complex. I now try to automate by using the same reference assemblies that the test studio uses, but I get a lot of issues:
1) Loader does not load types automatically
2) Tests are not being scheduled (but maybe I have a few loops to jump through)
What I basically want to achieve is to create a generic test project (test list). Then when I need to run an automated task I want to create a copy of that project, put it on a shared location (network share) and customize it for the specific action. Then I want to manually schedule the test execution on the first available execution runner.
In short my question is: please provide a public API so people can schedule automated tests (for example, after every build I want to schedule a UI test (automatically)).

Thank you for contacting us.
The upcoming 2013 R1 release of Test Studio comes with an entirely reworked remote execution and scheduling engine. The need for this change came from a desire to allow parallelization of test runs and to bring different test types into parity.
Please check out these two blog post about the new scheduling.
1. Test Studio’s New Remote Execution Engine
2. New Solutions for Scheduling Issues and More
Here is the API documentation for scheduling and storage services:
1. Scheduling: http://localhost:8009/documentation/
2. Storage: http://localhost:8492/v1/documentation/
Hope this helps.

In the previous version we could put the test files on a network share and point a project to that. Is this still possible in the new version or are we forced to put everything in the storage service? Otherwise I need to know how to create a project and upload the right files to it (but the documentation is quite limited).
Thanks!
In the version it doesn't mater where is your project located.
We try to be very intelligent and only upload into our storage server the tests and supporting files that are actually needed by that specific test list.
Hope this helps.
