recently I try to use Apache::Test with HTTP::Cookies. But it did not work as expected. I suppose the way to add a cookie_jar to A::T was with 'Apache::TestRequest::user_agent'. I read the docs from Apache::TestRequest::user_agent. Here is the relevant part of it.
And finally, the semantics of the "requests_redirectable"
parameter is different than for "LWP::UserAgent": It
either follows redirects for a request, or it doesn't.
Thus "requests_redirectable" is a boolean value instead of
the array reference that "LWP::UserAgent" expects. To
This implies to me that I have the choice to enable or disable redirects for this useragent with a bool value.
Apache::TestRequest::user_agent(
reset => 1, cookie_jar => $cookie_jar, requests_redirectable => 1 );
But this way the cookies are ignored. I expected that HTTP::Cookies->extract_cookies is called after every request. Therefor I create the cookie_jar from
Oops.
package My::Cookies;
use base 'HTTP::Cookies';
sub extract_cookies {
warn "extract_cookies!!!";
shift->SUPER::extract_cookies(@_);
}
To get it work, I need to parse the cookie headers myself or Apache::TestRequest::user_agent(
reset => 1, cookie_jar => $cookie_jar, requests_redirectable => 0 );
But here I need to redirect myself or do it with the undocumented Apache::TestRequest::user_agent(
reset => 1, cookie_jar => $cookie_jar, requests_redirectable => [qw~x y~]
);
that does anything I want but is undocumented!
Here is a part from Apache::TestRequest::user_agent that looks wrong to me.
my $redir = $args->{requests_redirectable};
if (ref $redir and (@$redir > 1 or $redir->[0] ne 'POST')) {
$RedirectOK = 1;
} else {
$RedirectOK = 0;
}
Does this address the issue?

I think that I might have changed this code to work this way, and overlooked that it could be passed as a simple boolean, even though that's the _only_ way it worked before I got my hands on it.
So does passing the array reference actually affect the way the LWP user agent object operates? If so, that's cool, but it's undocumented. I'm not sure whether it should be documented, though, since if LWP isn't installed it certainly won't work with the simple request interface that Apache::TestRequest uses in its place.
