Bug Description

We have a lot of negative tests under https://github.com/stackforge/poppy/blob/master/tests/api/services/data_create_service_negative.json & https://github.com/stackforge/poppy/blob/master/tests/api/services/data_patch_service_negative.json.
The tests validate for a HTTP 400 response code, but not the json response.
As a result we have tests that get back a 400 for missing request_url, origin rules etc., whereas the test is supposed to fail for other reason.

todo: Add validation for the resp.json() in case of 400s - make sure the response matches the scenario
