Integrating with HttpUnit
Hey!
I'm having some trouble with my functional tests. I'm
testing navigation on a website with HttpUnit and I
came upon a hurdle.
I need to follow a link that goes something like this:
onclick=\"window.location.href='Registration.RemoveOrEditCustomer?jsessionid=...';"
Httpunit does not suport javascript testing. So I'm
trying to use something else to follow this link which
consists of a call to a servlet. I know cactus is used
for servlet testing and I was wondering if there is
any way that I could use Cactus to obtain the
resulting page of this link and then use it for
further navigation testing with HttpUnit.
I truly appreciate any help I can get.
THANX

Thanks for your help.
I fixed my problem. I guess the session parameter was
interfering with the correct execution. I took it out
and left everything else and it worked just fine.

Just call the page with the needed HTTP parameters (i.e. the parameters
after the ?).

RE: Integrating with HttpUnit
Posted by Dos Santos <ne...@yahoo.com>.
The thing is that for some reason I cannot test the
other page without doing the specific call that's in
the link. It consists of a servlet and when you call
the servlet without the parameters that go after "?"
it returns to the same page you are on.
I don't know what to do, or if this is enough
information.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
I'm not sure what you want to achieve. You say that you have some
javascript that call a page and you want to test that page. You cannot
test the javascript. Fine. So you why don't you test that page directly
using HttpUnit ? Instead of having one test that encompasses the full
navigation, you'll have 2 tests.
It seems you're doing functional testing (black box) as opposed to unit
testing (white box). Although Cactus can do functional testing to some
extent, it is especially geared towards integration unit testing (that
is a combination of functional testing and unit testing, in other words
it is fine-grained functional testing, in the sense that you your entry
points in your application).
Hope it helps
