Hi Troy,
I had a similar, though maybe not the exact same scenario; I use the
following steps as part of my login...
<storeCookie
description="Store JSESSIONID cookie value"
name="JSESSIONID"
property="sessid"
/>
<storeCookie
description="Store JSESSIONIDSSO cookie value"
name="JSESSIONIDSSO"
property="sessidSSO"
/>
<invoke
description="Invoke the Register KPI action"
url="http://${gen_host}:${gen_port}/revenueoffice/secure/KPIs/SelectKPIF
ile.do?JSESSIONIDSSO=#{sessidSSO}"
/>
So I harvest the JSESSIONIDSSO cookie value, storing it in a parameter
called sessidSSO, then append this to the URL when invoking it to get to
the page.
In my case the session ID is only valid for a single test case, so you
may need to make the parameter globally available to all test cases that
follow your initial login...
HTH,
Colin.

Subject: [Webtest] Maintaining Sessions
I've been trying to figure out a way to keep the same session for a run
of several tests. Currently, the only way I can get multiple tests to
run is to have each script login. I tried to use <!DOCTYPE.... <!ENTITY
... to load a "login.xml" to automate the login as a workaround, but
that didn't work for me for some reason. What I would _*really*_ like
is for my initial login test to acquire a session ID and be able to use
that same session ID for the rest of the tests (therefore not needing to
login for each test). Is this possible? Can others out there give me
samples of they/you do it? I tried using <storeCookie> since we do
store the session ID as a cookie, but it doesn't seem to work for me
either (maybe since I'm working with multiple test files?). The current
setup I have is a "build.xml" file that calls the other test files
sequentially. Any information in this area would be a big help.
Thanks,
Troy
