I can't get a cookie I have "set" at the start of a TC using <header> to stay
around. I know I can't persist a cookie across multiple tests with WebTest, but
I thought I could persist one within a single TC this way.
For example, I have a site that will display a different page to a user
dependent upon a cookie value. There is a default view, then explicitly set
other views. This set with a script when the site is browsed to, and every page
check that cookie to determine what the user sees. The "easy" way to make sure
I am looking at the right page is through a verifyTitle. For this example,
assume the possible titles are "Yes" and "No". Any help? Is this a bug?
So I want to do something like this:
<config haltonfailure="false">
<header name="Cookie" value="bob=yes"> </header>
</config>
<invoke url="somepage1"></invoke>
<!-- The following will PASS -->
<verifyTitle text="Yes"> </verifyTitle>
<!-- I tried the following scenarios individually -->
<clickLink label="some label"> </clickLink>
<!-- The following will FAIL -->
<verifyTitle text="Yes"></verifyTitle>
<invoke url="sonofsomepage1"></invoke>
<!-- This would also FAIL -->
<verifyTitle text="Yes"></verifyTitle>
<invoke url="somepage1"></invoke>
<!-- Even re-invoking the first page will FAIL -->
<verifyTitle text="Yes"> </verifyTitle>
