I solved it 99%. Check out also discussion
(http://groups.google.com/group/google-web-toolkit/browse_thread/thread/aab1eac5909c3437).

The way to go is to use a gwt.xml for your GWTTestCase with a servlet
definition.

<servlet class="yourServletClass" path="/test.json"/>

You can then test against that servlet simply by calling

GWT.getModuleBaseURL() + /test.json

This is a cool solution how to test my API. If anybody knows a
solution how to map my test.json into the root of my server I would be
totally happy. But it's also cool the way it is now.

Cheers,

Raphael
