In 2.0.2 it is even simpler:
from gluon.contrib.webclient import WebClient
client = WebClient('http://127.0.0.1:8000/welcome/default/')
client.get('user/register')
data = dict(first_name = 'Homer',
last_name = 'Simpson',
email = '[email protected]',
password = 'test',
password_two = 'test',
_formname = 'register') # (*)
client.post('user/register',data = data)
data = dict(email='[email protected]',
password='test',
_formname = 'login')
client.post('user/login',data = data)
client.get('index')
# check registration and login were successful
assert 'Welcome Homer' in client.text
Checks automatically for persistant sessions and raises exception if sessions
break or if a web ticket is issued.
You can also do
client.get('index')
print client.headers
print client.cookies # parsed as a dict
print client.forms # dict of formname:formvalue
print client.sessions # dict of appname:session_cookie_key
print client.status
print client.text
