@Future (callout=true)

      Httprequest request = new Httprequest();
      request.setMethod('GET');

Put the call to the future method inside startTest/stopTest:

 

Test.startTest();

myClass.futuremethod( someID );

Test.stopTest();

Test.stopTest() does not return until your future method has completed.

 

Your other problem will be that you can't make an actual web callout while testing.  Use "Test.isRunningTest()" to determine whether to make the callout:

if ( !Test.isRunningTest() ) new Http().send(request);

I wrote it this way because in your example, you don't use the HttpResponse that's returned...

 

If this helps, please mark it as a solution, and give kudos (click on the star) if you think I deserve them. Thanks!

To test future method,we need to call future method between test.startTest() and test.stopTest().
When test.startTest() runs data is collected asynchronously and as soon as test.stopTest runs data collected is 
run synchronously.

test.startTest();

myClass.futureMethodName(id);

test.stopTest();
