Hi Webtester,

I do have a special task - extending the usual needs.
I our project we do - beside webtests - a lot of other stuff ;-)
So we do call a grinder-task for load testing each night (http://grinder.sourceforge.net/). usually after some changes in the webtest we do have a failure caused by the grinder, so we thought about using our webtest to record the grinder-run each night.

To record the grinder-script I have to use a proxy. So I will run the tests once a night with the proxy and the rest of the day without. I do know the config-option:

<setproxy proxyhost="firewall" proxyport="81"/>

but I do not want to extend each of our test.

Is there a reason webtest only considers System.properties?

com.canoo.webtest.engine.Configuration.java
-------------
        String proxyHost = System.getProperty("http.proxyHost");
        if (proxyHost != null && proxyHost.length() > 0) {
------------

I would suggest do expand the Configuration to take care for ant-proxy-properties, so I'm able to define a proxy in the upper build.xml (once) and hand it over to the single webtest-file. Which is btw. the default for calling:

                <ant antfile="description.xml"/>

InheritAll is true as default.

thanks,

Michael
