Hi Steve, Hi Julien, I also want to add a comment concerning underlying HtmlUnit.
First of all: I understand why JWebUnit wants to be as independent as possible of HtmlUnit. But not for the first time, I need to get access to more specific functions of HtmlUnit. Here's a short summary: The web application we develop and test supports searching for, lets say users. The data will be retrieved from a database and is displayed in a html table in which each <tr> has a unique id (<tr id="bla_1"...>). Each data record has a boolean attribute, which is displayed in a checkbox in the same row. Nothing complicated so far. The results of that query may vary, because the stored data changes. So the tester, as well as the automated tests, do not know about the exact result list. Now I want to assert that all checkboxes are checked or unchecked. I did not find any functionality in JWebUnit that would do that for me (which does not imply that this functionality does not exist :-) ). I simply do not know the value of the name- or id-attributes. So, the most comfortable way would be to get access to HtmlUnit's com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.Page object. For example by calling the (so far private) method HtmlPage page = ((HtmlUnitTestingEngineImpl) tester.getTestingEngine()).getCurrentPage(); (Or adding a method 'HtmlPage getCurrentPage()' to the implemented interface) This has even more advantages, as access to the dom tree means more freedom in iterating and inspecting the current page. Is there a more elegant/easier way to do that? If not, maybe my explanation could be considered in a future release of JWebUnit. Any comments are welcome.
