title: Performance testing a REST API with Visual Studio 2013
body: <p>I'm new to testing and test automation and I'm trying to test a REST API for performance. For this my primary preference is Visual Studio but I'd like to hear about other options too. I want to capture the json response from a REST call, extract some parameters from the JSON response I got and pass them to the next REST call. It's like automatic parameter detection. I did a search online but could only find something like this <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/dn250793.aspx" rel="nofollow">https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/dn250793.aspx</a> but no where they really talk about testing REST service with Visual Studio. Any pointers will be of great help. Thank you.!</p>
