Project description

This release includes:

Webunit is a framework for unit testing websites:

  • Browser-like page fetching including fetching the images and stylesheets needed for a page and following redirects

  • Cookies stored and trackable (all automatically handled)

  • HTTP, HTTPS, GET, POST, basic auth all handled, control over expected status codes, …

  • DOM parsing of pages to retrieve and analyse structure, including simple form re-posting

  • Two-line page-fetch followed by form-submit possible, with error checking

  • Ability to register error page content across multiple tests

  • Uses python’s standard unittest module as the underlying framework

  • May also be used to regression-test sites, or ensure their ongoing operation once in production (testing login processes work, etc.)
