Take a look at WWW::Mechanize on CPAN. Think of it as a scriptable web browser 
robot that plugs right into standard perl Test stuff (via Test::WWW::Mechanize) 
if you want to. You can do a lot with it, including interact with forms and 
submit them.

You could configure a test user account and do a login and logout with 
(Test::)WWW::Mechanize, checking (with regular expressions if you wish) that RT 
at a glance page looks about right.
