Hi Dimitry, The reason I wanted to submit a local form is that I can not simulate user clicks as part of the tests. The form in the question is:
<html><head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> </head><body><form name="input" action=" test-environment-url/promotion-code.promotion-codecheck" method="post"> promotions code: <input name="promotions_code" value="PromotionName" type=" text"> <input value="Submit" type="submit"> </form> </body></html> Mind the formatting. This is the source of the form I want to post. For some reason I can not click on the Submit button to post it in the test. Is there another way?
