The Response Assertion tests for whether the response text contains or matches a regular expression you devise. Regular expressions can be very tricky, and my best advice is to build from a simple one to a more complex one gradually.
Second, are you sure your javascript isn't being downloaded separately from the html? For instance, your html might have something like <script language="javascript" src="my_javascript.js"/> Or something like that. I didn't look up the right way to do it, but I think you get what I'm after. If so, the page wouldn't actually have any of the javascript in it. -Mike On 21 Aug 2002 at 18:33, Sosnowski, Andrew P [IT] wrote: > > > I did a little more testing with Assertions. > Can I have an Assertion for a string within a javascript function or > variable in the page?
