The St. Louis Java User Group held there January meeting. The topic tonight was HttpUnit. HttpUnit emulates portions of a web browser, including form submission, JavaScript, basic http authentication, cookies and automatic page redirection, and allows Java test code to examine returned pages either as text, an XML DOM, or containers of forms, tables, and links.
The demos and sample code were simple and straigth forward. There appears to be some constentance issues with HttpUnit API. It also appears that HttpUnit is no longer being worked on since the last update was Oct. 2004. The presentation has peeked my interest in unit testing a website. I also think a more updated tool will be in order.
