Thanks Marc,
Do you have examples of how I can go about creating my own custom
task/steps - on the fly, using a macro, or Groovy?
Thanks

Hi,
you can surely define your own Ant task (or WebTest step) in Java and
package it in a jar but it is easier to do it on the fly in the same
project.
One solution is to define your own macro the other one is to define
custom tasks/steps. In this second case, Groovy is your friend ;-)
Cheers,
Marc.
