Connection
Choose a configured connection to the broker from the drop-down list, or select [Create new connection] to create a new connection using the Create AMQP Connection dialog. Click the Edit button to customize properties of the selected connection in the Edit AMQP Connection dialog.
Queue
The name of the queue.
| Note: | This field supports property expansions. |
durable
If the option is checked, the queue will survive broker restart. If the option is unchecked, the queue will be deleted when the broker shuts down and will have to be redeclared when it comes back online.
exclusive
If the option is checked, the queue will be used only for one connection; when the connection is closed, the queue will be deleted.
auto delete
If the option is checked, the queue will be deleted when the last consumer unsubscribes from it.
Create/Edit AMQP Connection dialog
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. |

The port on the host through which the AMQP server is available.
