I am trying to use Rest API to query a test case, and the test case name contains &. e.g

FPGC_65661_01_10:[Layout&Page Folder] delete a folder which has child items

I tried the following query, but it is not working, it is getting all test cases. I guess I need to escape the &,  but not sure how.

Yes, you need to percent-encode the URL reserved characters (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding).
