I believe you are using RQM reportable RESTful API to retrieve all the artifacts. You cannot get testscripts steps directly within a test case. You must obtain the test scripts within a test case, then obtain test script steps within each script.

To find the url for test scripts within test case, find an element named "testscript" like below within the obtained test case xml:

<ns2:testscript href="https://davidbox-win7:9443/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/Quality+Manager/testscript/urn:com.ibm.rqm:testscript:1"/>

Then use the url in href attibute with a param to do another GET of the test script:

https://davidbox-win7:9443/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/Quality+Manager/testscript/urn:com.ibm.rqm:testscript:1?etlmode=true

or

https://davidbox-win7:9443/qm/service/com.ibm.rqm.integration.service.IIntegrationService/resources/Quality+Manager/testscript/urn:com.ibm.rqm:testscript:1?abbreviate=false

You will find entried in returned xml like:

<ns2:steps><ns9:step ns1:id="_KmLf0bbNEeKZePXMCv2ntw" type="execution" stepIndex="1"><ns9:name>1</ns9:name><ns9:title>1</ns9:title><ns9:description><div:div xmlns:div="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">1</div:div></ns9:description><ns9:expectedResult><div:div xmlns:div="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">1</div:div></ns9:expectedResult><ns9:comment/><ns9:compare/></ns9:step></ns2:steps>

Wish this helps.

Keaton,

Be user to specify the Request Header text/xml or Application/xml when performing the requests. This will ensure you obtain the XML of the artifact
You can use Poster or any other type of http client to make the request
