Hi Again, I have now tried loading these pages using Tamper Data to try to look at what happens.
https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ?review?initValidatePNR.do returns a 302 error and then I get https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ/book/initSearchForFlights.do?review?initValidatePNR.do which returns a 200 code. So I will try to track down the app developers and find out what is going on. But, I still don't understand why WebTest can't handle the proper URL: https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ/review/initValidatePNR.do When I look at this in Tamper Data it shows the first load of this page giving a 302 error, then a second load of the same page giving a 200 result. So I think I was on the right track below that WebTest is failing because it can't handle the same page being reloaded as per this: [invoke] DEBUG (com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.WebClient) - Got a redirect status code [302] new location=[https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ/review/initValidatePNR.do] [invoke] WARN (com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.WebClient) - Got a redirect but the location is the same as the page we just loaded [https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ/review/initValidatePNR.do]. Skipping redirection. [invoke] INFO (com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.WebClient) - statusCode=[302] contentType=[text/html] ... [invoke] DEBUG (com.canoo.webtest.steps.Step) - Step failed at C:\WebTest\doc\ISIS\testTest.xml:9: with exception [invoke] com.canoo.webtest.engine.StepFailedException: Step[invoke "Get the ISIS retrieve booking page" (1/1)]: HTTP error 302, at: invoke, Step: InvokePage at C:\WebTest\doc\ISIS\testTest.xml:9: with (resultFilename="response_1167767144056_invoke.html", taskName="invoke") I tried using Canoo Webtest: R_1438 then with Canoo Webtest: R_1454 with same result. Is this a defect in WebTest that I should raise in JIRA and is there a workaround? Any help much appreciated! regards, John On 1/3/07, John and Pip <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, I posted some months back about HTTP 302 errors, and in the thread below (snipped down somewhat) was given advise to use ? rather than / in the URL so I changed it to : url="https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz?isbook_en_NZ?book?initSearchForFlights.do and it worked. However, I now need to be able to hit a second "start page" in the same web application. That is the URL: https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ/review/initValidatePNR.do This is a public URL and if you hit it you get a page headed up "Retrieve online booking" and with a page title starting "Air New Zealand Bookings - Retrieve Booking". This gives the same 302 error in WebTest. <failure message="com.canoo.webtest.engine.StepFailedException: Step[invoke "Get the ISIS retrieve booking page" (1/1)]: HTTP error 302, at: invoke, Step: InvokePage at C:\WebTest\doc\ISIS\testTest.xml:6: with (resultFilename="response_1167729673189_invoke.html", taskName="invoke")"/> At warn level the console shows: [invoke] WARN (com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.WebClient) - Got a redirect but the location is the same as the page we just loaded [https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ/review/initValidatePNR.do]. Skipping redirection. Which perhaps is the clue - does this site require a redirection to the same URL, and if so is there any way to make WebTest / HTMLUnit *not* ignore this? However, when I follow the same trick of changing / to ? as per: https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ?review?initValidatePNR.do I get taken to a completely different page - specifically to https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ/book/initSearchForFlights.do The same thing happens if I put that URL directly into a browser so I'm just completely confused. Can anyone shed any further light on this for me please? thanks and regards, John Here is the script: <webtest name="Retrieve PNR" description="no desc yet" > &config; <steps> <invoke url="https://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/isbook_en_NZ/review/initValidatePNR.do"/> </steps> </webtest> and here is the config content: <config host="registration.airnewzealand.com" port="443" protocol="https" basepath="" summary="true" saveresponse="true" resultpath="..\webtest-results" resultfile="results.xml" showhtmlparseroutput="false" autorefresh="true" haltonfailure="false" timeout="120"> <option name="RedirectEnabled" value="true" /> </config> I had appended the full debug level output but it exceeded the 40k limit so have omitted it.
