Rick,
What is the best way to test my own api calls on the 'same' server? I want to post a json request to my own server, process it, and then respond back. I realize that if I am file mode I need at least two instances running to achieve that which is pretty clumsy when you need to debug.
Any suggestions?
Use WebSurge or Postman to test APIs just to see what comes back. If you need to test both client and server code then you have to run FoxPro on both ends but I'd argue you'll be better of using Unit Tests against the business objects that feed the API results.
For local testing WebSurge works well for me - I can quickly create and store requests plus easily share the requests and check them into source control for later testing again.
