Reaching via a browser is fine. I can see it also. Know that WebTest is build upon the HtmlUnit's API. As far as being reachable via HtmlUnit, this is only a guess, but I'm guessing the URL is passed through to be used by HtmlUnit. So I'm guess it's the culprit. There is a slight chance it's WebTest mangling the name somehow, but I doubt it. Wouldn't know for sure until someone looks at the source.
Try using the IP address instead.

Hi Charlie,

Thanks for your response.

Do you mean you couldn't reach https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ/book/initSearchForFlights.do from a browser or that you think WebTest believes it is not reachable? This is the main public URL of the Air New Zealand flight booking engine, and we have a screen up in the office showing bookings coming through every minute!

re testing with HTMLUnit: I'm not a java programmer - just a tester, trying to figure out whether I need to be a java programmer to use WebTest!

Thanks for the hint re version number. I see this is R_1389. In fact to my embarrassment I see this even appears in my email below!

regards,
         John

    An ugly was to discover the version is to

    1) replace your steps with this only:
            <verifyTitle
              description="we should see the login title"
              text="Login Page" />

    2) you should see something like:
    C:\test\Translink\gtest1.xml:12: Canoo Webtest: R_1393.
    Test failed.
    Exception raised: com.canoo.webtest.engine.StepExecutionException:

    Good luck.

    Hi,

    I have a test that is failing to follow a 302 error. I've
    searched the archives and played around trying to enable
    redirects but nothing seems to work.

    Below is the stripped-down test (just one invoke) and the output.
    This is a publicly available page so you can hit
    
https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ/book/initSearchForFlights.do
    from either IE or Firefox so I'm hoping someone can help me
    figure out how to hit this page from WebTest! Note that I've
    tried an internal page that is http rather than https and get the
    same problem so it isn't related to SSL.

    I am using Java 1.5.0.6 <http://1.5.0.6>, HTMLUnit 1.10 and
    WebTest R_1393 (I think! How can I verify this?).

    Regards,

            John
