As Fitz has said above - if you want to use REST then you have to make the GET request to just /api/rest/artist. However if you would prefer to to the url /api/rest/artist/list then that's more RPC style and so you'd have to be subclassing Catalyst::Controller::DBIC::API::RPC. I'm interested in the '//localhost/api/rest/artist/api/rest/artist/object' weirdness. Is that specific to running under Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst? Maybe try starting a server in debug mode and then specify CATALYST_SERVER=http://localhost:3000 before running the test to see how that's getting dispatched.
