That's a really interesting question... I don't know of anything that exists, although I'm quite certain something does. :)
I can however think it through, and its probably not a huge chore to build... As you mentioned, a filter would probably do the trick nicely... if we assume your app only deals in POSTs and GETs of basic user input (because things like multiparts and such would complicate matters a bit), then it's really just a simple filter that iterates over all parameters and stores them. Just a simple CSV file of name=value pairs would suffice, with each line being a request. Then it should be a simple matter to write a Java app using the standard JDK classes to run through that CSV file and make the requests with the parameters you recorded. -- Frank W.
