I'm using Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst to test my Catalyst App, more
specifically the process for registering new user accounts.
The application form is generated by
Catalyst::Controller::HTML::FormFu
with the expected fields: username, password, confirm_password, email
and the submit => 'Register' button (indicator).
When using the good ol' browser the form is submitted and an email
sent
for validation, no problem.
However, making the exact same call with
Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst
as follows:
my $fields = {
username => $username,
password => $password,
confirm_password => $password,
password_hint => $password_hint,
email => $email,
submit => 'Register'
};
$mech->submit_form(
form_number => 0,
fields => $fields,
);
will not work because within the sub register : Global FormConfig of
my
controller, $form->submitted_and_valid is returning false for some
weird
reason.
I tried debugging the HTML::FormFu stuff but this is all very
complicated.
Can anyone help me here?
I'm guessing HTML::FormFu determines that the form is submitted by the
value of the input from the submit button (rather that it just being a
post request which is my personal preference)
To get WWW::Mechanize to send this value do, call
$mech->submit_form(
with_fields => $fields,
button => 'submit' # or what ever the name attr of the submit
button is.
);
