Use this test step to create a binding between a queue and an exchange on an AMQP broker. A binding is a rule that the exchange uses to route certain messages to certain queues.
Note
To use the test step, you must have the AMQP Support Plugin installed. You can install it on the Integrations tab.
To use this test step, you need ReadyAPI Test Licenses. If you do not have it, you can request it on our website or start a trial.
You can modify the settings of the test step in its editor:
![]() |
Use the Create AMQP Connection and Edit AMQP Connection dialogs to configure connections used by the test step. Both dialogs have the same set of options.
Note
ReadyAPI stores AMQP connections at the project level. This means that a connection defined for one test step can be used for all the test steps in other test cases and test suites of the project.
You can also change the test step behavior by using the step properties on the Properties and Custom AMQP Bind Queue Test Step Properties panels in the Navigator.
