I agree with Jens' analysis. Adding on to what he said, if I were you, I'd just write the test cases in code. Writing
testobj = TestObj.new testobj.field1 = 'test data 1' .... x = client.processTestObject(testobj) assert(x) ... is no harder than writing the values for TestObj line by line in a JSON file, then writing the code to convert the JSON file to the actual TestObj. And I'd argue the code is more easily understandable to a human reader. And, writing it in code gives you the opportunity to create a "base testcase" of an object, then vary it slightly by changing just one field. In JSON, you'd have to dup the object's JSON representation over and over again, changing one field each time.
