Never tried instantiating conditions from javascript ... But basically these are java classes.
So instantiate and set configure it myhttp = new Http(); myhttp.setUrl("a url adress"); Maybe we could set a project instance or something like that. Let's have a look at the sources [1,2] - yes. Http extends ProjectComponent. So set the project reference so that Http could access properties and the logger system. myhttp.setProject( self.getProject() ); Then use the condition [3] if (myhttp.eval()) {... I havent tested these lines, so maybe you have to tweak javascript a little bit.
