Background: This assumes a custom implemented sampler, which combines multiple type of requests in the runTest() call, e.g. HTTP, GWT RPC. For the HTTP part, we would like to download the full page, including referenced objects like images, .js, .css.
Using the Apache HttpClient API, it is easy to request a single HTML page, and read back the response. (Doc: http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/fundamentals.html#d5e43). However, is there also an extension of this API which will download the other objects referenced in the initial HTML? That would include things like images, Java Script files, CSS. Thus providing a functionality similar to the command line tool wget. One option is of course going with a tool like Selenium / Web Driver, however, at this point we don't really need the rendering part (and might not be able to run the browser component of these tools). We would just like to exercise the server by downloading these extra static objects. Writing our own HTML parser for this seems redundant, so I'm hoping there is a library for this already.
