Http POST requests not POSTing? [message #137968] Tue, 04 November 2008 03:46 Go to next message

Originally posted by: cobbra.windstream.net

I've recorded a test using the Http Recorder and successfully run the
"generate" utility to produce the JUnit test. The test was recorded from a
WebSphre app server that was started from within Eclipse/RAD using an
externally started Agent conroller. All seems to record/generate/run
successfully, but, any of the POST requests aren't seeming to make it to the
server. The server log shows the various page GETS but no data is getting
updated or inserted when triggered from the POST requests. The app itself
is a web based using Struts/EJB3 with some Ext/JS JavaScript embedded in the
pages, so nothing too extraordinary.

Produce versions are RAD 7.0, WebSphere App server 6.1 w/ EJB3 feature pack.

As I mentioned, the test records fine, generates fine, and runs as "test"
fine, but doesn't seem to be POSTing anything. Tests result in 100% pass
status with no errors, just no data getting persisted through the server.
Is TPTP HTTP recording not supposed to alter data via POST request or
something? Or, could I simply be doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Randal,
Are the post events being recording correctly? Are these posts the
result of a user interaction or events within the application? If so, the
URL Recorder/Runner does not capture/playback browser events (e.g.
JavaScript).

I've double-checked and the POSTS look valid as recorded, just nothing
getting fired on the server side. And, yes, our application buttons are
being controlled via JavaScript (specifically ExtJS) so, the events that
may need to be set prior to submission of the forms may not be getting
triggered properly... thus no POST activity on the server during playback.

Is there anything else in the TPTP framework that could get me to where I
need to be?

Thanks again in advance!

Hi Randal,
Unfortunately, the URL Test runner does not handle session IDs required
for these POSTs. To comment or contribute to this enhancement, see:
