Hi Marc and Paul,
While I can see it is not backward compatible as would change behaviour of
existing scripts, the reality I would have thought is that you would ideally
always want to see current page state. That is how the "mainstream" tools
work and is one of the initially obvious limitations when people evaluate or
learn Canoo WebTest.
So I would suggest (beg!?) that it become the default behavior to look at
current page state, and if necessary an option be provided in the config
element to override it in one place back to the previous behaviour.
After all - we do want WebTest to become an end user tool as well as a java
guru's tool right? (rhetorical question I think - I'm trying to teach my
teenage daugher and her boyfriend but unfortunately for reasons like this
have had to start them on Selenium).
regards,
John
