Introduce REST client facilities in UI tests #555

Closed atsakiridis closed 7 years ago

Because we need to be able to request from Restcomm that:

a call is made towards Olympus
a message is sent towards Olympus

In our UI Tests. Let's make a REST client base with what is necessary for the UI tests that we can later improve for adding more advanced functionality like contacts handing in the server side.

Originally we were planning on introducing REST facilities in the SDK and use them from UI tests, but his isn't a good practice, since UI tests are supposed to be black box tests and not exercise actual SDK code, but act on UI elements and inspect results in the UI. And since code needed to send REST requests is pretty straight forward let's keep it in the UI test code for now.

We can revisit in the future.
