Hi Sebb,
             Thanks for your immediate reply.

Actually, for the load test that we r planning to do, we neccessarily don't
need users to log in. They would just browse the site  & add something to
the shopping cart , maybe.

I'm running the test plan in non-gui mode only. But can you please explain
to me the significance of cookie manager in this particular context ? Will i
be able to view the content of these files ?

Thanks,
Mili
