Create an FTP Test Garmin 1050

I picked up my first set of power meters and got myself ready for my first FTP Test. I surfed the user manual to figure out how to perform the FTP test. I searched google and found the same protocols to performing the test, but I could not find it anywhere in the device.  It wasn't until I dug deeper in these forums that I found out Garmin did away with the FTP Test and has set it to automatically set based on an individual's riding habits.  

Slightly disappointed in this as I was looking forward to the pain of my first attempt at the FTP test.

Here's my question, since I can create Cycling workouts in the Garmin Connect app, can I create an FTP Test, so the Garmin software can auto set my FTP? Or will this be a fruitless effort?
