In the Project Explorer, the JAX-RS Web Services displays information about the JAX-RS endpoint paths based on Application, Resources and Resource Methods as found in your application.

The JAX-RS tooling provides you with Content Assist proposals for @PathParam values.

Validation will check your use of JAX-RS annotations to see if it follows the JAX-RS specification. You can customize the problem level and set a given problem type to Error, Warning or Ignore.

For user-defined name binding annotations you can navigate to the associated Application, Resources and Resource Methods that have the same user-defined annotation.

When importing a Maven project that uses JAX-RS, the JAX-RS functionality are automatically enabled. No need to manually configure your project.

The Web Service Tester allows you to test your JAX-RS or JAX-WS Endpoints from within Eclipse. Select a JAX-RS Endpoint and select Run As>Run on Server or Debug As>Debug on Server to deploy your application on a server and open the Web Service Tester view. The location will be prefilled with the JAX-RS endpoint template, and when hitting the 'Run' button, a dialog will prompt you with parameter values to use.
