I ran into this problem recently and decided to write java code that
simulated what the function does (generating complex XML from variables ,
dynamic field names etc..). If I'm interested in testing functionality that
is browser/javascript dependent I normally use selenium (or QTP). Its far
more difficult to get any accuracy of browser render or script execution
times , considering the various hardware configurations that can exist.

If it's using HTTP it must work (the applet however could do other stuff),
You'd probably need to use a network sniffer tool like Wireshark and verify.
In any case what an applet can do(in terms of client-server communication) ,
you can do in Java/BSH.
